I'm Going Home

Left me at the crossroads

Tears in my eyes

Left me at the crossroads

Left me there to die

You said you gave me water, so I drank it down

You said you gave me water, so I drank it down

Said you gave me water, said you gave me water

But what you left me was Red devil lye

Felt that bitter taste upon my tongue

And a burning deep inside

My fate is sealed, there's nowhere left to run

From the shadow creeping up behind

Said you gave me water, so I drank it down (said you gave me water)

Said you gave me water, so I drank it down (said you gave me water)

Said you gave me (said you gave me)

Said you gave me (said you gave me)

What you left me was Red Devil lye

I'm going home

I'm going home

I'm going home

I'm going home

I'm going home

I'm going home

Will you put the coins in my eyes

After you set me free?

Will you make sure when you'd put me six feet down

It's buried deep 'neath a willow tree?

I thought it was water, so I drank it down (said you gave me water)

I thought it was water, so I drank it down (said you gave me water)

Said you gave me (said you gave me)

Said you gave me (said you gave me)

Oh, but what you gave me was Red Devil lye

I'm going home

And I'm going home

I'm going home

I'm going home
