Johnny Red & The Prayerhouse People

I shot a man in El Paso, shot him dead I don't recall what it was, but it was something he said Then they paid me their money, and I took my good share Of women and liquor, of hope and despair I'm gonna burn for my crimes, so I'm told And the devil will greet me the day I'm too old I killed a priest in the desert, he confessed what he'd done On his knees I shot him and wiped off the gun The twilight is ending And the cold winds descending But there's a fire deep down in me That will carry me till the morning's set free I ain't gonna feel sorry for myself anymore I've been down that road too many times before I've done what I've done, I've painted myself into This corner, this deadlock: the weight of my sins The twilight is ending And the cold winds descending But there's a fire deep down in me That will carry me till the morning's set free I had a picture of Jesus in a frame 'bove my bed Of when He's hung on the cross with a crown on His head The inscription read, King of the Jews A man full of sorrows, acquainted with grief and the blues The twilight is ending And the cold winds descending But there's a fire deep down in me That will carry me till the morning's set free --- Sicario - Johnny Red & the Prayerhouse People
