Mojo Nixon - d**h Row Blues lyrics

I'm on d**h row I'm waiting to go, yeah yeah Yeah, I'm waiting to die Now Uncle Mex pleaded guilty to being alive His mother begged the governor let her be by his side And had me some problems down in Mexico land 'Cause I was giving it to Uncle Sam And I don't know my name anymore 'Cause it's not the same anymore My kid said daddy What's in the will I need to know Before you are k**ed And I'm on d**h row I'm waiting to go, yeah yeah Yeah, I'm waiting to die, say bye-bye I said, I'm on d**h row I'm waiting to go, yeah yeah Yeah, I'm waiting to die Well, I'm a-working on the road gang outside the county jail And it's a life for the innocents and man it ain't as bad as hell Saw Charlie's eyes kneelin' by my bed And the Reverend Jim Jones was a-giving him head And I had a little son and not a dream And I saw another man and started to scream That I'm on d**h row And I'm waiting to go Yeah, I'm waiting to die Bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye I said I'm on d**h row I'm waiting to go Yeah, I'm waiting to die Well, I don't remember much about the trial But they said the judge's daughter was just a child And it got real quiet and they commenced to pray And the man said boy, you got anything to say I said God's done told me I'm a mutant on the loose Oh, I'm a sittin' in a chair, I'm waitin' on the noose Got a deal with the devil to get myself free I'm down on my pocket, I'm down on my knees 'Cause I'm on d**h row I'm waiting to go Yeah, I'm waiting to die, bye bye baby Say what I said I'm on d**h row I'm waiting to go Yeah, I'm waiting to die That's right I'm gettin' ready to go bye-bye You know one night About three nights ago, I was down by route 128, down by Old Tie Lakes Road Down by the power lines Back in the backseat of my '69 Volkswagen with no second gear I got the mighty 1090 Huggy Boy show on the radio I got my got my got my radio on And I'm uh, I'm there with my number one girl in the back seat with my pants at my knees, uh-huh But I ain't got no disease baby, and I say You know and Huggy Boy comes on and he says, "Uh, Mojo Special announcement up in San Quentin," you know They shaved his head You know, they greased his temples up, they locked him in the chair And they got him ready for Freddy, man You know they got six witnesses And the governor says, "Uh-uh, this is it" And the man says, "I don't, I don't, I don't regret what I did You know I did what I did, yeah Pull the switch b**h, set my hair on fire Give me a thousand watts of power Every hour, yeah you know, cause I said I'm on d**h row I'm waiting to go Yeah, I'm waiting to die" I said I'm on d**h row I'm waiting to go Yeah, I'm waiting to die
