Lyrics

I'm a dead man walking here
 But that's the least of all my fears
 Ooh, underneath the water
 
 It's not Alabama clay
 That gives my trembling hands away
 Ooh, please forgive me father
 Ain't going back to Barton Hollow
 Devil gonna follow me e'er I go
 Won't do me no good washing in the river
 Can't no preacher man save my soul
 ♪
 Did that full moon force my hand?
 Or that unmarked hundred grand?
 Ooh, underneath the water
 
 Ooh, please forgive me father
 
 Miles and miles in my bare feet
 Still can't lay me down to sleep
 If I die before I wake
 I know the Lord, my soul won't take
 ♪
 I'm a dead man walking
 I'm a dead man walking
 Keep walking and running and running for miles
 Keep walking and running and running for miles
 Keep walking and running and running for miles
 ♪
 Ain't going back to Barton Hollow
 Devil gonna follow me e'er I go
 Won't do me no good washing in the river
 Can't no preacher man save my soul
