Rigby - Dead Man Walking lyrics

<b>Dead Man Walking</b> by <i>Rigby</i><br />The tattoos across your chest

they colour your skin

you where blessed like the rest

but cursed from the beginning

they're red, white and blue

like the national flag

and they have a hold on you

from birth to body bag

like on all of us in this brave, new world

Dead man walking

but you know that you're alive

dead man walking

but you know the soul survives

dead men walking

with strar-spangled eyes

time to take that dive

time to take that drive

the house that you lived in

is up for sale

it's a must-sell situation

without avail

you we're taught to hold your head up

to hold it up high

while you live in the gutter

to hold on to the sky

like all of us in this brave, new world

people saying

dead man walking

but you know the soul survives

dead men walking

with strar-spangled eyes

time to take that dive

time to take that drive
