Don Rigsby - Blood on My Hands lyrics
Come here James, try to understand Why I can't die with blood on my hands This blood won't flow through your brothers veins The Lord forgave me can you forgive me James That night I came home with blood on my clothes You washed them clean and you didn't know The blood on my clothes was from you brother dear This secert I've kept through all these years (banjo, break) I'll tell you what happened on that night When I took your own brothers life He stepped out grabbed my bridle reins And he did not answer when I asked his name Come here James, try to understand Why I can't die with blood on my hands This blood won't flow through your brothers veins The Lord forgave me can you forgive me James (mando, break) I warned him again as I pull my gun He made no attempt to try and run I shot him there in the road that night I buried him there in the moons dim light So now your know of the mystery And you know why his blood I see Killin' your brother was not my plan And I can't die with his blood on my hands Come here James, try to understand Why I can't die with blood on my hands This blood won't flow through your brothers veins The Lord forgave me can you forgive me James (fiddle, break) She held him closely to her breast He closed his eyes in eternal rest As his breath left and he squeezed her hand Said I'll meet you James in the promised land |
