Can't Be Too Long



Ahhh ... Ahhh ...

Ah, Ah, Ahhh ... Ahhh ...



The Heat Of A Summer Day, Poundin' Down On My Back,

Work Like A Dog In The Sunlight, Tryin' To Pay The People Back.

I Killed A Man In The Spring Time; Had To Work Hard Just To Make A Dime,

To Buy My Baby The Things That She Needs.

I Guess I Didn't Think Twice, And Now I Have To Pay The Price,

For Killing A Man Of Another Creed.



Ahhh ... Ahhh ...

Ah, Ah, Ahhh ... Ahhh ...



I Guess I'll Have To Be Strong, The Rest Of My Life Can't Be Too Long.

I Know I'll Die Some Day, And Be Going Far Away,

And You Won't Remember The Things That I've Done.

I Feel A Shedding Tear, It's Only Been A Year,

But I Know I'll Be Dead When The Evening Comes.



Ahhh ... Ahhh ...

Ah, Ah, Ahhh ... Ahhh ...



I Guess I'll Have To Be Strong, The Rest Of My Life Can't Be Too Long.



Ahhh ... Ahhh ...

Ah, Ah, Ahhh ... Ahhh ...
