John D. Hale Band — Face Down Dead lyrics

Lyrics

This afternoon when i came home from work i didn’t expect what i was about to
see my darlin wife was layin in my bed with
Some other man than me well it was ol Tommy Johnson the neighbors oldest son
and as the anger filled me up well i reached for
My gun and he screamed and said please dont do it as the hatred was runnin
through my head as i pulled the trigger back
Slowly but surely he took his last breath and he fell face down dead
Well my wife just sat there cryin in pure disbelief from what id done i said as
much as i love you dear i just can’t trust
You and his death won’t be the only one and she screamed and said please dont
do it as the hatred was runnin through my head
As i pulled the trigger back slowly but surely she took her last breath and she
fell face down dead
Now im all alone with nowhere to run and i dont have no place to hide this
murderin gun no i won’t live my life out in no 8
By 10 cell as i reach for my gun and its one lonely shell and sirens screamed
as i stood there with that .38 to my head as i
Pulled the trigger back slowly but surely i took my last breath and i fell face
down dead
