Woke up dead, you know I woke up dead Give me time to get it through my head They hanged me by the neck, I heard the devil laugh I was a nervous wreck, I was the first in line Do you want to look right in the devil's face? You must have seen the ground where we upheld the Law I was a young man then, I was a young man then Spending time on the killing floor Do as you would want to be Joy of labour, sets you free Woke up scared, you know I woke up scared Give me time to show you, how I wound up there They put me in a cell, I heard the ghost in there I wasn't feeling well, I was the first in line Do you want see right through the devil's eyes? You must have seen the ground where they all stood before I was a young man then, I was a young man then Spending time on the killing floor Be more than you seem to be Joy of labour, sets you free Woke up dead, you know I woke up dead I was the only one, that saw the road ahead They beat me with their fists I did the devil's work And I was on their list, I was the first in line Do you even know what the devil does He drives a man 'til he can't take no more I was a young man then, I was a young man then Spending time on the killing floor
