Carry the Coffin

been out on the road so long that I begin to see

traces of the drifters that came before me

dogs without a home no chain no leash

bones of their masters in their starvin teeth

I’m a lost soul a travelin man

I play guitar in the devil’s band

I smoke and I drink what can I say

bury my sins in the old fashioned way

chorus:

and I’ll carry the coffin

all the way

I’m haunted by ghosts that don’t let me go

like those come from pages of lovecraft and poe

my heart it cries for those that I’ve known

but I keep on movin the road is my home

I’m a lost soul a travelin man

I play guitar in the devil’s band

I smoke and I drink what can I say?

bury my sins the old fashioned way

the backs of my brothers I cover when I stand

don't trust a vamp she'll fuck you if she can

but I keep on movin it's the only way I know

up with the fire and on with the show

I’m a lost soul a travelin man

I play guitar in the devil’s band

I smoke and I drink what can I say?

bury my sins the old fashioned way
