Evil of Man
03:17
|
|||
When he rides into town
The men all act like beaten dogs
When he talks its like a shout
And they all quiver at the sound
And all the lies that poor out,
Like smoke from his twisted mouth
He is just the type of hound
The preacher man warned you about
He likes his women and he likes them loose
He’s killed for less than bread or booze
He’s taken all from many a fool
Because he’s got nothing to lose
And I’m not one to condone the deed
But its just what this town needs
I pray to God that someone cracks
And puts a bullet in his back
Who will stand up to the evil of Man?

The Day Will Come
03:57
|
|||
He’s drunk enough to drown
In the darkest parts of town
Where the God fearing never go
And he speaks blasphemies
Through clenched teeth
The words of a damned soul
The day will come when his wretched Life will end
The day will come when he’ll pay for all of his sins
Worn leather face
And eyes like the plague
Holding horrors untold
Blood red hands
With innocent death
And countless crimes so cold
The day will come when his forsaken soul will pass
The day will come when the devil will laugh last

Find Him
03:18
|
|||
When we found him
He had drowned him
In the river
Left for dead with
A piece of lead
In his back
We’ll find the bastard who did this,
Come Break of day,
We’ll bring him to justice,
Sure as hell we’ll make him pay
The house was cinder
And charred tinder
Burned to the ground
The men inside
Were burned alive
As he walked away
We’ll find the bastard who did this,
Come Break of day,
We’ll bring him to justice,
Sure as hell we’ll make him pay

Church Bells
04:07
|
|||
He widowed his bride
And his children they cried
So we put him in the ground
At the edge of town
And the church bells told
Of a murder cold
And the hymns they rose
As the casket closed
He’s covered in dirt
As we consoled the hurt
We spoke words that were kind
With vengeance on mind
And the church bells told
Of a murder cold
And the hymns they rose
As the casket closed
He took a life before its time
An unspeakable crime
One single bloody act
And he’s never coming back

Hang the Man
04:01
|
|||
We starved the dogs for days
In a cage made of steel
Til they were rabid and crazed
They’ll soon be on your heals
You’ve taken to the hills
As you try to flee
From the blood that you’ve spilt
And your many wicked deeds
And now the hounds are loose
They are barking your fate
We’re preparing a noose
For to take your life away
Hang the Man
Before the night is done
Hang the Man
before the break of dawn
The buzzards circle
Above them gallows they fly
They scream and they call
For a wicked man to die
They church bells rang
For the widowed and the hurt
They’ve gathered to see you
Hang and justice being served
And now them hounds are loose
They are barking your fate
We’re preparing a noose
For to take your life away
Hang the Man
Before the night is done
Hang the Man
before the break of dawn

Aint Got Nothin

Ain't Got Nothin On Me
The ghosts now crowd this town
They keep their bones safe under ground
But he aint got nothin on me
His dogs are on the prowl
I can hear them bark and howl
But he aint got nothin on me
The fields are now aflame
And that fire will not be tamed
But he aint got nothin on me
The smoke may fill the sky
And blot out the light
but he aint got nothin on me
His unchecked cruelties
Have got this town on its knees
But he aint got nothin on me
And now he’s outside my door
On his pale white horse
But he aint got nothin on me
He aint got nothin on me
That devil aint got nothin on me

Blood n Dirt
04:26
|
|||
The blood and dirt,
Like a whiskey mix
His life pours out
on the desert sand
He fell for the devil
And all of his tricks
Worst is the fear
Of a soul to be damned
Denial ebbs
And turns to despair
No one to hear
A dying man’s lies
His pleas they fall
On the cold night air
Alone does the
Wicked man die
