Kill That Man

I'm gonna make that final walk, down that wretched lonesome hallway
 Gonna take my final meal before they sit me in the chair
 Gonna have some preacher man who I've never known before
 Take me by the hand and tell me I'll soon walk with Jesus
 When I kill that man
 When I kill that man
 I'll get up on the stand
 Tell them all just how I planned
 To kill that man
 To kill that man
 The judge he will command
 And I'll ride off to the land of no return
 My mother will be there, with her quiet understanding
 My brothers will be there, with their judging eyes of stone
 My father will be there, wondering what he could have done to change
 This son who finally broke, and just reached out and had to choke
 When I kill that man
 When I kill that man
 I'll get up on the stand
 Tell them all just how I planned
 To kill that man
 To kill that man
 The judge he will command
 And my soul will leave this land
 The warden will glance at the phone and watch to give the signal
 Waiting for the call that we both know will never come
 The witnesses will look away, as my body starts to tremble
 Then I'll lose all restriction as my spirit leaves this shell
 When I kill that man
 When I kill that man
 I'll get up on the stand
 Tell them all just how I planned
 To kill that man
 To kill that man
 The judge he will command
 And I'll ride off to the land of no return
