Lonely man
There on his deathbed
Death and his pale horse
This is what he said
He said, See them pictures
Up there on the wall
Go ahead and take one last look before
I make my final call
Shows a man who had it all
Yeah, the pride before the fall

Had me a woman now
Had me a wife
Had everything in this world
Had a perfect life
Then I wandered
Down that darkened road
Went to taste the sins of the flesh
Yeah find my lust for gold

Now I'm lying here all alone
In my broken and empty home
No one to search for my soul to roam
All because I lost the Cornerstone

I came back from the Crossroads looking for some whiskey and wine
I came back from the Crossroads looking for some whiskey and wine
Saw that girl and her Cornerstone decided I would make her mine

I said c'mon now baby, let me show you how to rock and roll
I said come over here baby, show you how to rock and roll
Yeah give me a taste of your Cornerstone, shake you down to your soul

She said I'm an independent woman, yeah I don't need your kind of man
I'm an independent woman, don't need your kind of man
You want a get to this Cornerstone, you better put a ring on my hand

I said my honey my baby, I'm going to give you the world on a string
I said my honey my baby, I'll give you the world on a string
Give me a taste of that Cornerstone 'cuz Honey I got you that wedding ring

You're a good looking man yeah, I like way your guitar hums
You're a good looking man yeah, I like way your guitar hums
Come on get some of this Cornerstone 'cuz man I think I'm falling in love

Oh, let's go to church

Called you last night man, how come you didn't pick up the phone
I said I called you last night man, why didn't you pick up the phone
I needed you to come home yeah, come and warm my Cornerstone

Now my honey my baby, I went to the Crossroads again
Sorry my baby, I went to the Crossroads again
There were so many Cornerstones, you know I just had to give in

She said now don't you understand that you promised to be my man
She said don't you remember, you promised that you'd be my man
Take one last look at this Cornerstone never going to see it again

Now my heart is broken, and I sit on the levee and moan
Said my heart's all broken, I sit on the levee and moan
I'll never forget the day I lost my Cornerstone

Now all you people out there you know I'll tell you the truth
I say now all you people, you know I'll tell you the truth
If you got that Cornerstone, keep it close and tight next to you
Or else you'll play the blues like this

Now I'm gone with the pale rider, you know I'm leaving my home
Now I'm with the pale rider, baby I'm leaving my home
You know now honey, I'll never forget your Cornerstone

If you were my man, you know I wish that you would stay here
I said farewell my man, I wish that you would stay here
My Cornerstone misses you, don't you know that I still shed my tears

Oh, see that lonely sky riding
All you people, looking out there into that setting summer sky
You've got to be believe when I say that
The Cornerstone made me die
