lyrics

Don’t give me that devil line
There’s nothing darker than the darkness of man
I found the body of Caroline
About a mile up river from the dam

I got a story to tell
I got a story to tell
This world has been broken
Our love’s gone
Death’s comin’
Death’s comin’ to carry me away

She had a baby but the baby won’t mind
I took an ice pick and I drew out the blood
She got a body now the body is mine
C’mon baby won’t you show me some love

I got a story to tell
I got a story to tell
This world has been broken
Our love’s gone
Death’s comin’
Death’s comin’ to carry me away

Now I think about cashin’ out
A little rest oughta do me some good
Well I’m a little too w…
To die alone out here in the woods

I got a story to tell
I got a story to tell
This world has been broken
Our love’s gone
Death’s comin’
Death’s comin’ to carry me away
