lirik lagu danno simpson - the final stand of henry lee
[verse 1]
thunder crashin’ up above the path
lightning flashin’ through the sky
rain fallin’ from heavens above
another cold and lonely night
taking cover against a canyon wall
layin’ low and out of sight
how a man can grow tired of living just to hide
[verse 2]
folks know me by a~many name
but you can call me henry lee
legend has it if you seen my face
it’s the last thing that you’ll see
but do i look such way, no, i’m old and gray
far from in my prime
well, i’m tired of fightin’ off the end of time
[verse 3]
i heard the word out of eagle pass
ten men were askin’ all around
if any seen to weary traveler
makin’ camp just out of town
they followed me from the rio grande
all the way to ol’ montan’
foolish me to think that i could stand a chance
[verse 4]
so tonight i’ll sleep peacefully
knowing fully where i’m bound
but when the time comes that i am judged
i won’t dare to make a sound
for the blood that is on my hands
must be paid and laid on down
come to mornin’ light to put me in the ground
[verse 5]
“henry lee, oh, henry lee
god have mercy on a sinner like thee
come on with your hands up to the sky
the price, it rests upon your head
us men will come forth to collect
there ain’t a place left in this world to hide
you’ve run out of time
you’ve run out of time”
[verse 6]
the night before the dead hang me high
lord, i had me quite the dream
i was standin’ on that heavenly plane
with my mother right next to me
she said “come forth son and lay down your guns
find the peace that you do seek
and let this be the final stand for henry lee”
