25 Minutes to Go

Well they're building a gallows outside my cell

And I've got 25 minutes to go

And the whole town's waitin' just to hear me yell

I got 24 minutes to go

Well they gave me some beans for my last meal

With 23 minutes to go

But nobody asked me how I feel

I got 22 minutes to go

Well I sent for the governor and the whole dern bunch

With 21 minutes to go

And I sent for the mayor but he's out to lunch

I've got 20 more minutes to go

Then the sheriff said boy I gonna watch you die

With 19 minutes to go

So I laughed in his face and I spit in his eye

With 18 minutes to go

Now hear comes the preacher for to save my soul

With 13 minutes to go

And he's talking bout' burnin' but I'm so cold

12 more minutes to go

Well they're testin' the trap and it chills my spine

11 more minutes to go

And the trap and the rope aw they work just fine

10 more minutes to go

Well I'm waitin' for the pardon that'll set me free

With 9 more minutes to go

But this ain't the movies so forget about me

8 more minutes to go

With my feet on the trap and my head on the noose

5 more minutes to go

Won't somebody come and cut me loose

7 more minutes to go

I can see the mountains I can see the skies

With 3 more minutes to go

And it's to dern pretty for a man that don't want to die

2 more minutes to go

I can see the buzzards I can hear the crows

1 more minute to go

And now I'm swingin' and here I go!Thank you very much. I'm going to do another song here,

Featuring the harmonica, eh

And then I want to get the stool there and sit down and do some, uh

Slow ballad type songs that we wanted to do for this album

And especially for you.

What I do with my list over there. My idiot sheet

Oh, hit the floor.

How ya doing Shirley?

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
