Well they're building a gallows outside my cell And I've got 25 minutes to go And the whole town's waitin' just to hear me yell I got 24 minutes to go Well they gave me some beans for my last meal With 23 minutes to go But nobody asked me how I feel I got 22 minutes to go Well I sent for the governor and the whole dern bunch With 21 minutes to go And I sent for the mayor but he's out to lunch I've got 20 more minutes to go Then the sheriff said boy I gonna watch you die With 19 minutes to go So I laughed in his face and I spit in his eye With 18 minutes to go Now hear comes the preacher for to save my soul With 13 minutes to go And he's talking bout' burnin' but I'm so cold 12 more minutes to go Well they're testin' the trap and it chills my spine 11 more minutes to go And the trap and the rope aw they work just fine 10 more minutes to go Well I'm waitin' for the pardon that'll set me free With 9 more minutes to go But this ain't the movies so forget about me 8 more minutes to go With my feet on the trap and my head on the noose 5 more minutes to go Won't somebody come and cut me loose 7 more minutes to go I can see the mountains I can see the skies With 3 more minutes to go And it's to dern pretty for a man that don't want to die 2 more minutes to go I can see the buzzards I can hear the crows 1 more minute to go And now I'm swingin' and here I go! Thank you very much. I'm going to do another song here, Featuring the harmonica, eh And then I want to get the stool there and sit down and do some, uh Slow ballad type songs that we wanted to do for this album And especially for you. What I do with my list over there. My idiot sheet Oh, hit the floor. How ya doing Shirley?
