(Verse 1)  

I tip my hat to the ladies

In the smoke filled saloons

Drink my share of watered down whiskey 

Howled me some at the moon

Then one day it all came down

6 shots rang out in the sun

And it don't matter who's declared the winner

We all lose by the gun  

(Chorus)  

And It's a short rope to hell

A short short rope to hell

It's a short rope to hell

A short short rope to hell  

(Verse 2)  

Runnin through the badlands

All hell breakin loose

Just a step away from dyin

By the hangman's noose

Runnin through the badlands

The law on my trail

Just a step away from fallin

Down through the gates of hell  

(Chorus)  

And It's a short rope to hell

A short short rope to hell

It's a short rope to hell

A short short rope to hell

And It's a short rope to hell

A short short rope to hell

It's a short rope to hell

A short short rope to hell

a short rope to hell

A short short rope to hell

(VERSE 1)

There'll be no sleep
For the wicked tonight
And everywhere you go
You'll find that nothings right
` Everyone you meet
Will turn you from the light
And there'll be no sleep
For the wicked tonight

(CHORUS)

 SO DON'T WALK IN SHADOWS
AND DON'T STEP ON CRACKS
DON'T TALK TO STRANGERS
BEWARE OF ONE EYED JACKS
TAKE DUE CAUTION
AS YOU TRAVEL
BE SURE TO COVER YOUR TRACKS
AND DON'T WALK IN SHADOWS
AND DON'T STEP ON CRACKS

(VERSE 2)

There'll be no sleep
For the wicked tonight
And nothin that you do
Can ease what's in your mind
Reality and danger
Will meet and then collide
And there'll be no sleep
For the wicked tonight

(REPEAT CHORUS)

 SO DON'T WALK IN SHADOWS
AND DON'T STEP ON CRACKS
DON'T TALK TO STRANGERS
BEWARE OF ONE EYED JACKS
TAKE DUE CAUTION
AS YOU TRAVEL
BE SURE TO COVER YOUR TRACKS
AND DON'T WALK IN SHADOWS
AND DON'T STEP ON CRACKS

(VERSE 1)

In the corner sat... the eyes of the wicked
Peerin through the darkened haze ,
Of a stone cold cell
Mister Wicked lord... how he looked hungry
And he was dining tonight,...at the fed-er-al jail

(CHORUS)

AND HE SAID
DRINK YOUR BLOOD ,TO KILL MY JONES
TURN YOUR BODIES INTO DUST AND BONES
YOU HAD TO FEED YOUR VEINS
TO KILL YOUR JONES
NOW I'LL TURN YOUR BODIES INTO DUST AND BONES
DUST AND BONES ...DUST AND BONES
TURN YOUR BODIES INTO DUST AND BONES
DUST AND BONES ...YEA DUST AND BONES
 TURN YOUR BODIES INTO DUST AND BONES

(VERSE 2)

Well now look at that man of the hour
He's ripe to die.. for the killin he's done
Mister Wicked.. reached out for his soul
And the man had- no- place- left- to- run

(REPEAT CHORUS)

AND HE SAID
DRINK YOUR BLOOD ,TO KILL MY JONES
TURN YOUR BODIES INTO DUST AND BONES
YOU HAD TO FEED YOUR VEINS
TO KILL YOUR JONES
NOW I'LL TURN YOUR BODIES INTO DUST AND BONES
DUST AND BONES ...DUST AND BONES
TURN YOUR BODIES INTO DUST AND BONES
DUST AND BONES ...YEA DUST AND BONES
 TURN YOUR BODIES INTO DUST AND BONES

"2 Feet Deep"

(verse 1)

Lightnin flashes in a jet black sky
A baby boy cries out at birth
Thunder crashes down like a whip
And shakes up mother earth
A joy to hold,made of love
Begins his journey to reach the end
Born in a storm, he's been sworn
To break what he can't bend

(chorus)

And one foot's in the fire
one foot's in the grave
said one foot's in the fire
one foot's in the grave
Life's comin down to the wire
It's too late to be saved
With one foot in the fire
one foot in the grave
it's in the grave

(verse 2)

There's a name on the Tombstone
Looks just like my name
Hellhounds are howlin in the distance
in the direction from which I came
They're closin in on me so fast
I can feel the Devil's flame
It's too late for my fate
Says it's time to end the game

(chorus)

And one foot's in the fire
one foot's in the grave
said one foot's in the fire
one foot's in the grave
Life's comin down to the wire
It's too late to be saved
With one foot in the fire
one foot in the grave
Yea, life's comin down to the wire
and it's too late to be saved
with one foot in the fire
and one foot in the grave
it's in the grave
it's in the grave
it's in the grave
it's in the grave

It's- in- the- grave.

"SAME OLD STORY"

(Verse 1)  

Big world's full of diamonds

Big world's full of pearls

Big world's full of riches ya know

That makes the woman out grow the girl

Woman takes on the richman

The richman can't buy love

Woman takes down the richman

Trades her soul in on the shove

Trades her soul in on the shove  

(Chorus)  

And it's been the same old story

Ever since the world began

The poor girl throws out her line

And reels the rich man in

And it's been the same damn story YEA

Ever since the world began

The poor girl takes the rich man

Far away from the rainbows end

Far away........  far away

far away.......... far away

from the rainbow's end

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAA  

(Verse 2)

Big world's full of Vampires

Big world's full of greed

Big world's full of takers ya know

That suck your blood when their in need

Blindman stands on the corner

With his cane clinched real tight

Blindman laughs at the rich man

Who falls prey to the deadly bite

Who falls prey to the deadly bite

THAT"S RIGHT  

(Chorus)  

And it's been the same old story

Ever since the world began

The poor girl throws out her line

And reels the rich man in

And it's been the same damn story YEA

Ever since the world began

The poor girl takes the rich man

Far away from the rainbows end

Far away...........  far away

far away........ far away from the rainbow's end

Far away.... from the rainbows end

Far away......  far away

far away...... far away from the rainbow's end YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

{The night the Demons tasted Blood}

(Verse 1)

Well I woke up in the cold darkness

Lord my body could feel the heat

Lord I could sense the danger

As I arose to my feet

Well I stepped outside my door

And the light caught...caught my eyes 

Before me stood the demons

And the devil was standin by

(Chorus)

And the devil's in the darkness

And every breath he takes

Sounds like the hissin voice

Of a thousand deadly snakes

And the devil's in the darkness

He's come to see the show

He's come to watch the demons

As they try to steal my soul

Try to steal my soul....Yea

(Verse 2)

Well the first demon gave me a smile

As she stepped up on my porch

But when she reached for my knife

My anger became..became a torch

And the fire in my fists

Was the last act of the play

The devil had been beaten once more

And the demons were driven away

(Chorus)

And the devil's in the darkness

And every breath he takes

Sounds like the hissin voice

Of a thousand deadly snakes

And the devil's in the darkness

He's come to see the show

He's come to watch the demons

As they try to steal my soul

Try an steal my soul

Try ta steeeeeeeeeeeal my soul

they try ta steal my soul

they try ta steal my soul

The try to steeeeeee.eel..eel..eel....my soul
