Early this morning |
|
When you knocked |
|
Upon my door (2x) |
|
An I say |
|
Hello Satan |
|
I believe it's time to go |
|
Me and the Devil |
|
Walking side by side (2x) |
|
And I'm gonna see my woman |
|
'Til I get satisfied |
|
See See |
|
You don't see why |
|
Like you'a dog me 'round |
|
*Now babe you know I ain't do it like that |
|
Say I |
|
Don't see why |
|
People dawging me around |
|
It must be that old old evil spirit |
|
That spirit drop me down in your ground |
|
You may |
|
Bury my body |
|
Down by the highway side |
|
*I don't really care where you bury me when I'm gone |
|
I'm gone |
|
You may bury my body |
|
Down by the highway side |
|
So my old evil spirit |
|
Can greyhound |
|
Bus that ride |
|
--Bonus part |
|
Standing |
|
In the ruins of another black mans life |
|
Or flying through the valley |
|
Separating day and night |
|
I am am Death, |
|
Cried the Vulture, |
|
For the people of the light |
|
Caron brought his raft |
|
From the sea that sails on souls |
|
And I saw the scavenger departing |
|
Taking warm hearts to the cold |
|
He knew the ghetto was a haven |
|
For the meanest creature ever known |
|
In a wilderness of heart break |
|
In a desert of despair |
|
Evil's clarion of justice |
|
Shrieks a cry of naked terror |
|
Taking babies from their mamas |
|
Leaving grief beyond compare |
|
So if you see the vulture coming |
|
Flying circles in your mind |
|
Remember their is no escaping |
|
For he will follow close behind |
|
|
|
Only promise me a battle |
|
A battle |
|
For your soul and mind |
|
And mine |
|
And mine |
