Verse 1:


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

repeat chorus

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

repeat chorus

Coda key changes to :

Hold on, hold on

One more hour and my life will be through

Hold on, hold on (fade)
