Joe Mansman and the Midnight Revival Band - Hell or High Water

Got a prayer in my left hand and murder in the right
Tonight's the night it's gonna end in a fight
This bucket o' blood's gonna burn the breeze
You're gonna bite the ground or buckle at the knees
Got blood in my left hand and pity in the right
Can't run when the water's hell or high
The lines are drawn and the money's right
High noon's tickin' it's a devil's night

You're gonna get buried, gonna get buried alive boy
You're gonna get burned, gonna get put down tonight
No one's gonna worry, no one's gonna get come looking for you
We're gonna dig you a grave in this cold town tonight

Got a priest on my left side, the law on the right
Today's the day they're gonna hang me high
Till' my boys came rolling in, hell on their side, singin'
"Brother today ain't your day to die!"

You're gonna get buried, gonna get buried alive boy
You're gonna get burned, gonna get put down tonight
No one's gonna worry, no one's gonna get come looking for you
We're gonna dig you a grave in this cold town tonight

Got God on my left side, the devil on the right
Today's the day they're gonna judge me right
My life on the scale tipped hard to the right, he said
"You're gonna get burned, gonna get put down down tonight"
The lines are drawn and the money's right
High noon's tickin' it's a devil's night
