lyrics

Well I left town about the age of fourteen
With a crooked heart, but my conscience clean
…I wasn’t that young
Walked across the desert with a ragged mule
It didn’t feel so bad, cause I was looking for you
…you stood in my dreams

I made it to the city, fair
Where I thought I saw your auburn hair
…But you weren’t there
There I fell into this band of thieves
With those wild eyes, there’s a judge that breathes
…fire like the desert sun

Where will you be when I die?
When I draw my last weary breath and I…
Will you see right through me?
Feel this plague that blew me away…

The judge, he taught me with a rabid show
All those learnings he did know
…Though I couldn’t read
Now he was drooling at the mouth
When I killed a man on my way down south
…In the border towns of Mexico

Long time’s past and the judge he’s gone
He rode out west before the dawn
…Reckon I’ll cross him again
Made my way across the Santa Fe Trail
Where I thought I felt your skin so frail
…I’m still searching

Where will you be when I die?
Will you stop in your tracks and break down and cry…
Will you see my young face?
In a photo you cannot quite place…

Now I’m riding out west to someplace
Where I’ll meet the judge face to face
…He’ll bleed me out
And as I lay cold and dry
Maybe I’ll look up and I’ll see your eyes
…and know what this life means

Where will you be when I die?
When I draw my last weary breath and I…
Where will you be when I die?
When I’ve sung my last song and I…
Where will you be when I die?
Will you stop in your tracks and break down and cry…
Will you see right through me?
Feel this plague that blew me away...
