Now my heart is getting heavy I've lost my appetite Heart is getting heavy Lost my appetite You know blue devil worked me over in my dreams last night It's been too long since I've sat in my lonesome cell It's been too long since I've sat in my lonesome cell United States is going to kill me and send my soul to hell They call it murder, it was a matter of pride They call it murder, it was a matter of pride And I saw that round up with my woman by his side Well I up and shot him what else could I do I up and shot him what else could I do Yeah Lord and I took my woman too I don't want anybody scaffolding the priest, he just now come I don't want nobody scaffolding the priest, he just now come I hear death bells toll and I believe my time has come Oh take it easy, it's my last go round Oh, take it easy, this is my last go round Yeah, have mercy on my soul, I believe I'm sinking down Now my heart is getting heavy, I've lost my appetite, yeah Now my heart is getting heavy, lost my appetite You the blue devil work me over in my dreams at night
