The preacher talked with me and he smiled
Said to come and walk with me, come and walk one more mile

Now for once in your life you re alone
But you ain t got a dime
There s no time for the phone
Chorus:
I ve just gotta get a message to you
Hold on, hold on
One more hour and my life will be through
(1, 2: , to verse 3: , to coda)
Hold on, hold on
Verse 2:
I told him I m in no hurry
But if I broke her heart, then won t you tell her I m sorry
And for once in my life I m alone
And I gotta let her know
Just in time before I go

Verse 3:
Well, I laughed but that didn t hurt
And it s only her love that keeps me wearing this dirt
Now I m crying, but deep down inside
Well, I did it to him
Now it s my turn to die

One more hour and my life will be through
Hold on, hold on (fade)
