Lookin' at the dawn break out the window,
It always looks so nice this time of year,
But today I pray for stormy weather,
Hopin' for those dark clouds to appear,
Today's the day that I get out of prison,
But I ain't celebratin' and here's why,
In ninety minutes time I get the needle,
And not long after that I guess I'll die.
It wasn't even me that pulled the trigger,
And that's a fact that everybody knows,
Be different if I had some fancy lawyer,
But l ain't rich so that's the way it goes.
Ate my rib-eye steak and met the chaplain,
Wrote my wife and kids for one last time,
Ain't much point in waitin' for the Governor,
That old bastard never drops the dime.
Lord I'm ready, just send me the reaper,
But please do somethin' 'bout that pretty sky,
Send the storm clouds down from off the mountain,
I just want some thunder when I die.
