Artist: Johnny Cash

album: I Walk the Line: The Best of Johnny Cash


Well they're building a gallows
Outside my cell and I've got 25 minutes to go
And the whole town's waitin' just to
Hear me yell I've got 24 minutes to go
Well they gave me some beans for my last meal
The 23 minutes to go
But nobody asked me how I feel I've got 22 minutes to go
Well I sent for the governor and the whole dern bunch
With 21 minutes to go
And I called up the mayor but he's out to lunch
I've got 20 more minutes to go
Then the sheriff said, "Boy I'm gonna watch you die got 19 minutes to go"
So I laughed in his face and I spit in his eye with 18 minutes to go
Now hear comes the preacher for to save my soul with 13 minutes to go
And he's talking bout' burnin' but I'm so cold
12 more minutes to go
Well they're testin' the trap and it chills my spine
A 11 more minutes to go
And the trap and the rope aww they work just fine
And ten more minutes to go
Well I'm waitin' on the pardon
That'll set me free with nine more minutes to go
But this ain't to moving so forget about me eight more minutes to go
With my feet on the trap and my head on the noose
Five more minutes to go
Won't somebody come and cut me loose with seven more minutes to go
I can see the mountains, I can see the skies with three more minutes to go
And it's to dern pretty for a man that don't wanna die
Two more minutes to go
I can see the buzzards I can hear the crows one more minute to go
And now I'm swingin' and here I go-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o!
