A great crowd has now gathered. All around the jail today. To see me executed. And hear what I do say. . Now I must hang this morning. For the murder of Lilli Schull.
I wish, I wish my baby was born. Sitting on his papa's knee. And you, poor girl, were dead and gone. Green grass growing over thee. . I'm not no saint, nor I never shall be.
Don't the lights look empty. When the streets are bare. Almost as empty. As the look you give me. When I'm the only one. . And it's a long one. So it brings you down.

As I walk along and stumble. Trains rumble in my head. As I breeze along and grumble. Think about you instead. . And a piece of pecan pie. And you that's all I want.
Lost love in the desert. Lost love on the sea. You can put it behind you. But it's still beyond me. . 'Cause hearts break in the summer. Will they meet me in the spring.
Hey ain't it great for us to be alive. I've been lying in wait for you to come outside. I know you don't know me but I know a lot about you. You're the one who knows me better than I do.
I am not a shadow. I am flesh and blood. Meet me in the middle. If you think you could. If you think you could. . If I'm walking in the dark. I'm whispering.
Met a man on a train near Santa Fe. Who was dead a minute as a child. Fell off a dock. He couldn't swim and his heart stopped. A gold snake slid from the sky.
