"Death Row Confession."-by-Chris Bright & Matthew F. Blowers III by Art~Whimsically Yours published on 2024-02-28T05:16:40Z Sitting here waiting for the preacher with an hour left to go there's no place as lonely in the whole wide world then a cell block on death row the food they brought me lies uneaten in a cold lump hard and dry and in the dimness of my cell again I hear her cry, "Mister, please don't hurt me I'll do anything you say!" "I've got a family back home who loves me Oh, God why did I run away??" "All those things I've planned were so close at hand must I lose them all today?" "Mister? Please don't hurt me... I'll do anything...A N Y T H I N G you say." Well, Lord I tried to plead insanity cause I'd go crazy if I had to die then the prosecutor got me all confused with his how's, where's, whens and whys??? he said insane people don't know right from wrong, and then he caught me in a lie, and in another place and another time again I heard her cry.... "Mister, please don't hurt me I'll do anything you say!" "I've got a family back home who loves me, Oh, God why did I run away??" "All the things I've planned were so close at hand must I lose them all today?" "Mister? Please don't hurt me... I'll do anything...A N Y T H I N G you say." Now she haunts me in my darkened cell so much I cannot sleep she drags me through the depths of hell where only demons creep she'll dance within the shadows on the walls wherein I lay until her death is justified and my life slips away my life slips away.................... "Mister, please don't hurt me I'll do anything you say!" "I've got a family back home who loves me, Oh, God why did I run away??" "All the things I've planned were so close at hand must I lose them all today?" "Mister? Please don't hurt me... I'll do anything...A N Y T H I N G you say." Sitting hjere waiting for the preacher with just ten minutes left to go there's no place as lonely in the whole wide world then a cell block on death row hey the wardens here and the guards are too, time that I must go.... Time that I must go,,,, Marvelous music composed & played by-Chris Bright-(c)-2023 Lyrics & Vocals written & sung by Matthew F.
