lirik lagu tim obrien - footsteps so near
there’s a tale they tell down in old wolf county
of a murderous husband and his family of three
one day a neighbor from over the hill
he found them dead in the cabin it was so deathly still
the killer he left a note and i know how it read
i hope you don’t find me i’d rather be dead
than to live in your jailhouse for the rest of my days
until a jury it hangs me for my wicked ways
chorus:
sometimes at night i wake to the sound
of the men in the distance and the baying of hounds
once on a full moon in the spring of the year
i heard breaking branches and footsteps so near
well the posse it searched it was five days or more
he hid in a cave by the steep river sh-r-
â‘til he gave himself up he started walking downtown
before he got to the courthouse a man shot him down
he said i’m not sorry for what i have done
but i cannot live like a man on the run
i’m glad that you killed me you can dig me my grave
it can’t be much worse than that dark lonely cave
chorus
