| The lord knows mercy he don’t know fire
|
| And fire receive thy soul (x2)
|
| The devil knows mercy, the devil knows fire
|
| And fire receive thy soul (x2)
|
| I see the sun alone every morning
|
| I see the soul of you
|
| The rest is instinctive
|
| Guess now who holds thee
|
| Is it death (x5)
|
| Nay, its not death
|
| And this… tonight do not retire
|
| The lost trade their bibles
|
| For whiskey’s sweet fire
|
| And fire receive thy soul (x2)
|
| The lost tonight do not retire
|
| I’m faithful I’m faithful in fire
|
| And fire receive thy soul
|
| Is it death (x2)
|
| Nay, its not death (x2) |
