Lyrics
How long must I stay How long must I go on Taking my chances on burning away Don't take away my daylight Don't take away my dream Why must I go (*) To hell and back again To hell and back again To hell and back again To hell and back again Will I make the morning (**) To see another day The Gods may come at midnight They're taking me away I'm waiting here on death row I pray for my reprieve [Repeat *] The chaplain and the gardener (***) Have told me how to die I've used up all my chances Now's the time to cry For I can hear the footsteps The lights have just gone dim I'm on the final journey [Repeat *] [Repeat **] [Repeat *] [Repeat ***] [Repeat *]
