Текст (слова) песни: Hank Snow - Walking The Last Mile
Walking the last mile so weary and slow It leads to the gallows from where I don`t know One step every minute each minute seems as a year This parting is bitter when no friend is near If I had one wish Lawd and that could come true I`d wish I was pardoned and back home with you I`d get on my knees Lawd and if you`d forgive No more would I hurt you as long as I live (The way I go on Lawd is crashing my soul It`s hard to be tied down in this prison hole) There is one regret Lawd that tortures my brain It`s that I`ve been careless in causing you pain Walking the last mile with each step of blare Praying forgiveness from him way up there Oh please say a prayer Lawd for it`s my last keep Please pray the great Master shows mercy on me Perhaps in the next world on that judgement day I`ll find that the Master washed my sins away There I`ll hold my head up when my soul is free And rest in your arm Lawd through eternity
