| They all laughed as he turned around slow
|
| They said you ain’t welcome round here anymore
|
| You just might as well go
|
| He wiped the blood from his face as he slowly came to his knees
|
| He said I’ll be back when you least expect it
|
| And hell’s coming with me
|
| Hell’s coming with me
|
| There is a hill at the bottom of the valley
|
| Where all the poor souls go when they die
|
| And if you listen real close, you can hear em' like a ghost
|
| Saying you’re never gonna make it out alive
|
| There is a town at the bottom of that hill
|
| They got a secret that they keep like a slave
|
| They got a black magic preacher, we’d do well to let him teach her
|
| You’ll be heading up that hill to the grave
|
| And it is well, with my soul
|
| You line your pockets full of money that you steal from the poor
|
| And on your way down the hill, you hear me ring that bell
|
| I’d pay the devil twice as much to keep your soul
|
| There was a drifter passing through that little valley
|
| See he had promised he was coming back to town
|
| (Coming back to town)
|
| They didn’t know him by his face, or by the gun around his waist
|
| But he come back to burn that town to the ground
|
| First there was fire
|
| Then there was smoke
|
| Then that preacher man was hangin' by a rope
|
| Then they all fell to their knees and begged that drifter
|
| Begged him please, as he raised his fist before he spoke
|
| I am the righteous hand of God
|
| And I am the devil that you forgot
|
| And I told you one day you will see, that I’ll be back I guarantee
|
| And that hell’s coming, hell’s coming
|
| Hell, hell’s coming with me
|
| And it is well, with my soul
|
| You line your pockets full of money that you steal from the poor
|
| And on your way down the hill, you hear me ring that bell
|
| And I said, hell’s coming with me
|
| (Hell's coming with me) |
