Burn

Burn
Copyright 2019 Mike Norris Music


The devil drove up in a black Dodge Charger
And he read me my rights.
He said, you’ve been on the run for too long, son…
But now I’ve got you in my sights.
Now I’m sure the Magistrate will be more than happy
To put you up at the inn for the night.
You can tell it to the Judge in the morning’, boy.
Yeah, we’ll let him decide.

Someday, you’re gonna learn.
Someday, you’re gonna learn.
You can’t go on like this or you’re gonna burn.

Now how does a poor redneck boy like me
Fit into the Master’s plan,
Just another wayward soul adrift at sea
In need of a guiding hand.
Now I’m damned if I do
And I’m damned if I don’t
And I’m damned if you say I am.
Lord, have mercy on this outlaw
Who is born cursed in sin…
For he is only a man.

Someday, I’m gonna learn.
Someday, I’m gonna learn.
I can’t go on like this or I’m gonna burn.

Someday, you’re gonna learn.
Someday, you’re gonna learn.
You can’t go on like this or you’re gonna burn.

Someday, I’m gonna learn.
Someday, I’m gonna learn.
I can’t go on like this or I’m gonna burn.
