Lyrics Kill That Man - Jason Charles Miller

Kill That Man

I’m gonna make that final walk, down that wretched lonesome hallway
Gonna take my final meal before they sit me in the chair
Gonna have some preacher man who’ve I’ve never known before
Take me by the hand and tell me I’ll soon walk with Jesus
When I kill that man
When I kill that man
I’ll get up on the stand
Tell them all just how I planned
To kill that man
To kill that man
The judge he will command
And I’ll ride off to the land of no return
My mother will be there, with her quiet understanding
My brothers will be there, with their judging eyes of stone
My father will be there, wondering what he could have done to change
This son who finally broke, and just reached out and had to choke
When I kill that man
When I kill that man
I’ll get up on the stand
Tell them all just how I planned
To kill that man
To kill that man
The judge he will command
And my soul will leave this land
The warden will glance at the phone and watch to give the signal
Waiting for the call that we both know will never come
The witnesses will look away, as my body starts to tremble
Then I’ll lose all restriction as my spirit leaves this shell
When I kill that man
When I kill that man
I’ll get up on the stand
Tell them all just how I planned
To kill that man
To kill that man
The judge he will command
And I’ll ride off to the land of no return
