Barton Hollow

The Civil Wars

I'm a dead man walking here But that's the least of all my fears Ooh, underneath the water It's not Alabama clay That gives my trembling hands away Please forgive me father Ain't going back to Barton Hollow Devil gonna follow me e'er I go Won't do me no good washing in the river Can't no preacher man save my soul Did that full moon force my hand? Or that unmarked hundred grand? Ooh, underneath the water Please forgive me father Miles and miles in my bare feet Still can't lay me down to sleep If I die before I wake I know the Lord my soul won't take I'm a dead man walking I'm a dead man walking Keep walking and running and running for miles Keep walking and running and running for miles Keep walking and running and running for miles Ain't going back to Barton Hollow Devil gonna follow me e'er I go Won't do me no good washing in the river Can't no preacher man save my soul
