| The preacher talked with me and he smiled
|
| Said «Come and walk with me, come and walk one more mile
|
| Now for once in your life you’re alone
|
| But you ain’t got a dime, there’s no time for the phone»
|
| I’ve just gotta get a message to you
|
| Hold on, hold on
|
| One more hour and my life will be through
|
| Hold on, hold on
|
| I told him I’m in no hurry
|
| But if I broke her heart, then won’t you tell her I’m sorry
|
| And for once in my life, I’m alone
|
| And I gotta let her know just in time before I go
|
| I’ve just gotta get a message to you
|
| Hold on, hold on
|
| One more hour and my life will be through
|
| Hold on, hold on
|
| Well I laughed, but that didn’t hurt
|
| And it’s only her love that keeps me wearing this dirt
|
| Now I’m crying, but deep down inside
|
| Well I did it to him, now it’s my turn to die
|
| I’ve just gotta get a message to you
|
| Hold on, hold on
|
| One more hour and my life will be through
|
| Hold on, hold on
|
| I’ve just gotta get a message to her
|
| Hold on, hold on
|
| One more hour and my life will be through
|
| Hold on, hold on
|
| I’ve just gotta get a message to her
|
| Hold on, hold on |
