They're coming for me
tell them I'm ready
bring it on, bring it on.
I can take what they give
but my days ain't many
soon be gone, soon be gone.
Lone dog howls
cries in the night
wail and moan, wail and moan.
Know how he feels
with no help in sight
all alone, all alone.
But I'll stand
my ground like a freeborn man
I'll do all I can
when the hard time comes.
Here to stay
gonna live my life my way
they'll carry me away
but I won't run,
no I won't run.
Look behind
miles and miles of smiles
no regrets, no regrets.
Straight ahead
troubles and trials
place your bets, place your bets.
Locked and loaded
target on my chest
blood from stone, blood from stone.
End of days
seek the final rest
headin’ home, headin’ home.
Now I'll stand
my ground like a freeborn man
I'll do all I can
when the hard time comes.
Here to stay
gonna live my life my way
They'll carry me away
but I won't run
no I won't run.
Lived my life
no slave to desperation
won’t be long, won’t be long.
When I’m gone
begin the celebration
sing my song, sing my song.
They're coming for me
tell them I'm ready
bring it on, bring it on.
I can take what they give
but my days ain't many
soon be gone, soon be gone.
Now I'll stand
my ground like a freeborn man
I'll do all I can
when the hard time comes.
Here to stay
gonna live my life my way
They'll carry me away
but I won't run
no I won't run.
