He’s Comin’ Back Home
VERSE 1
John my brother—wait before you leave
There’s trouble brewing down at the creek
Hangman roped another thief
Now there’s a soul in need
VERSE 2
He robbed the bank on Monroe street
Had a wife and kids to feed
Tried to ride out on the twelve fifteen
They caught him before the bridge
PRECHORUS
Come on John-grab your bible again
CHORUS
Our Father who art in Heaven
This ain’t the life you wanted him livin’
Have mercy on a poor man’s soul
Hes goin’ back home
BRIDGE
No trial date no magistrate no reprieve
It was justice served down by the creek
CHORUS
Our Father who art in Heaven
This ain’t the life you wanted him livin’
Have mercy on a poor man’s soul
He’s comin’ back home
VERSE 3
Sheriff notified his next of kin
Waited on his wife and little kids
Heard momma tellin’ his daughters
Daddy made a bad mistake
LIFT
Yeah-daddy made a bad mistake
CHORUS
Our Father who art in Heaven
This ain’t the life you wanted him livin’
Have mercy on a poor man’s soul
He’s comin’ back home
OUTRO
Have mercy on a poor man’s soul
He’s comin’ back home
