Steve Earle - Unrepentant lyrics

In the middle of the night In the middle of a lonely night Stands alone in the pale moonlight Screams out in defiance He's got no one to turn to You could talk 'til you turn blue He'd just turn his back on you Ain't no compromising 'Cause he's totally untamed No fear of the unnamed But he'll take the blame 'Cause someone's gotta do it Now he's out on the highway He's got the key and the right of way His tank is full and his toll's paid Hellbound and determined He run a dangerous payload When he comes to the crossroads Ah, man it's all times to explode You'll just see the sky burnin' Now he's standin' at hell's door With a bad attitude and a forty-four The devil said, "What's up man Now what you come here for?" He said, "Man, let's just get to it" He said, "I always heard that you were the bad one There's a few places I ain't been, a few things I ain't done You got your pitchfork and I got my gun" Someone's gotta do it
