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
