lyrics

I killed a man with my right hand
I killed him in cold blood
I let him bleed out at my feet
Oh Lord, my guilt runs deep

I killed a man with my right hand
I laid him in the ground
I buried him in six feet of sin
Oh Lord, my blood runs thin

Lordy, Lordy, send you mercy down on me
But mercy ain't what I need
I once was blind, but now I see
There ain't none more wretch than me

I killed a man for 30 piece
And I bought the potter’s field
I sealed a kiss upon his face
And in grief I hang above his grave

Lordy, Lordy, send you mercy down on me
But mercy ain't what I need
I once was blind, but now I see
There ain't none more wretch than me

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now I'm blind
I was found, but now I see

Lordy, Lordy, have mercy on me
But mercy ain't what I need
I once was blind, but now I see
There ain't none more wretch than me

Lordy, Lordy, send your mercy down on me
I killed the man from Galilee

His ability to tell a story through song is reminiscent of Kristofferson, Dylan and Springsteen. His blue-collar origins are evident in both narrative and delivery .."extra powerful and raspy... It’s not a pretty picture, but then, life never is.” (Greyowl Point) ... more
