Walk me down to the willow tree
Where the leaves don't sway in the quiet breeze
Walk me down to where you hid the bodies
Walk me down to the gates of hell
I know you hold the key
Walk me down to meet the beast that lives inside of me
'Cause saints and sailors all agree
That I'm the worst there's ever been
I've killed so many men
They named a graveyard after me
With heavy sins, both new and old???
Walk me down, past the willow tree
Walk me down to the see of flame
Where the rich and greedy hide their shame
Walk me down where they'll burn someday
Walk me down passed the roaring fires
Of the thieves and butchers, priests and liars
In the end, their souls all burn the same
'Cause saints and sailors all agree
That I'm the worst there's ever been
I've killed so many men
They named a graveyard after me
With heavy sins, both new and old???
Walk me down, past the willow tree
Walk me down to th' coast of gold
Passed the howling hounds to the thorny throne
With shaky hands and trembling knees
It's hard to even speak
Look the Devil in the eye and say
Sir, I'm afraid my soul has been redeemed
'Cause saints and sailors all agree
That I'm the worst there's ever been
I've killed so many men
They named a graveyard after me
With heavy sins, both new and old???
Walk me down, past the willow tree
