These four walls of Farnworth / Are closin’ in on me / My final meal is over / They’re gonna set me free

These four walls of Farnworth
Are closin’ in on me
My final meal is over
They’re gonna set me free
I can feel the fires a burnin’
As the devil guards my door
I hit my knees in search of Jesus
On a cold jailhouse floor

Lord now I’m singin’
Get me out of here
I see the preacher’s eyes
As my daughter cries
When they strap me in this chair
Lord I hope she forgives me
For livin’ my life this way
Tonight I’ll ride the lightning
To my final judgment day

From “Lightning”
