Sundown and sorrow have found me. Memories are makin' me blue. Here with the shadows around me. I can't forget lovin' you. . Nothin' but daydreams to haunt me.
Sitting alone in my prison cell. Watching the setting sun. My trial on earth is over now. . Chorus:. . I'm sentenced to die at dawn. But after I die in the electric chair.
I can hear the organ playing gentle strains of peace be still. I can see my mother praying in the chapel on the hill. . While the choir turns the pages in my heart I feel a thrill.
