Black River Killer Lyrics - Furr - Blitzen Trapper

It was just a little while past the Sunset Strip 

They found the girl's body in an open pit 

Her mouth was sewn shut, but her eyes were still wide 

Gazing through the fog to the other side 

 

They booked me on a whim and threw me deep in jail 

With no bail, sitting silent on a rusty pail 

Just gazing at the marks on the opposite wall 

Remembering the music of my lover's call 

 

So you make no mistake, I know just what it takes 

To pull a man's soul back from heaven's gates 

I've been wandering in the dark about as long as sin 

But they say it's never too late to start again 

 

Oh when, oh when 

Will the spirit come a-callin' for my soul to send 

Oh when, oh when 

Will the keys to the kingdom be mine again?

It was dark as the grave, it was just about three 

When the warden with his key came to set me free 

They gave me five dollars and a secondhand suit 

A pistol and a hat and a worn out flute 

 

So I took a bus down to the Rio Grande 

And I shot a man down on the edge of town 

Then I stole me a horse and I rode it around 

'Til the sheriff pulled me in and sat me down 

 

He said, you make no mistake, I know just what it takes 

To pull a man's soul back from heaven's gates 

I've been wandering in the dark about as long as sin 

But they say it's never too late to start again 

 

Oh when, oh when 

Will the spirit come a-callin' for my soul to send 

Oh when, Oh when 

Will the keys to the kingdom be mine again?

Well the sheriff let me go with a knife and a song 

So I took the first train up to Oregon 

And I killed the first man that I came upon 

'Cause the devil works quick, you know it don't take long 

 

Then I went to the river for to take a swim 

You know that black river water is as black as sin 

And I washed myself clean as a newborn babe 

And then I picked up a rock for to sharpen my blade 

 

Oh when, oh when 

Will the spirit come a calling for my soul to send 

Oh when, oh when 

Will the keys to the kingdom be mine again? 

Oh when, oh when 

Will that black river water wash me clean again 

Oh when, oh when 

Will the keys to the kingdom be mine again?
