[Verse 1]
I killed a man in Birmingham
I hit him with a tire iron
He did not move and I do not give a damn
I've been working here like a slave mule
Sucking the earth of dry crude
Looking for a way out of it all
Cops are comin', I can feel 'em here
My back is crawlin' with standin' hair
Wouldn't mind to see a few pigs fall
[Chorus]
So take me down to the river
My blood all on the floor
'Cause I don't know if I can carry this weight
Much longer anymore
Take me up the mountain
On a cloud bound for the sky
Don't go prayin' for me
Because tonight I'm prepared to die
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, woah
Oh, woah
Oh
Oh, woah
Oh, woah
Oh
