lyrics

Straight to the gallows, bound in chains
Heaven knows I lost my way
I gave my love to the devil’s own kind
Sold my soul for a thief in the night

And I knew if I sailed on that sea
Laid with the devil, he would turn on me
But the day we wed, oh, I said:

“This man will be the death of me"
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Will be the death of me
I said, "This man will be the death of me"
The death of me

Our love burned hot as the island sun
We were thick as thieves out on the run
But his lust for blood surpassed his greed
He went off like the gun he handed me

And I knew if I sailed on that sea
Laid with the devil, he would turn on me
But the walls ran red as I said:

“This man will be the death of me
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Will be the death of me
I said, "This man will be rhe death of me”
The death of me
Ooh
The death of me
ooh

But I woke one day to an empty bed
And a pistol held against my head
I was silent as they read my crimes
'Cause if he’s long gone,
Guess who pays twice?

I’d said,
“This man will be the death of me
Will be the death of me
I said, "this man will be the death of me"
Oh, oh, oh oh
Will be the death of
I said, "This man will be the death of me”
The death of me
