Santa Fe

They say that no man is an island
And good things come to those who wait
But the things I hear are there just to remind me
Every dog will have his day

The spirits, they intoxicate me
I watched them infiltrate my soul
They try to say it's too late for me
Tell my guns I'm coming home

I swear I'm gonna live forever
Tell my maker he can wait
I'm riding somewhere south of Heaven
I'm heading back to Santa Fe
It's judgement day in Santa Fe

Once I was promised absolution
There's only one solution for my sins
You've gotta face your ghosts, and know with no illusions
That only one of you is going home again

And I blame this world for making a good man evil
It's this world that can drive a good man mad
And it's this world that turns a killer into a hero
Well, I blame this world for making a good man bad

Now I ain't getting into Heaven
If the devil has his way
I swear I'm gonna live forever
Heading back to Santa Fe
Got debts to pay in Santa Fe
It's judgement day in Santa Fe
Lord, have mercy

So I save a prayer when I need it most
To the Father, Son and the Holy Ghost
And sign it "From a sinner with no name"
Well, I'll meet my maker when he close the book
On the hearts I broke and the lives I took
Will he walk away 'cause my soul's too late to save?

Now I ain't getting into Heaven
If the Devil has his way
I swear I'm gonna live forever
Heading back to Santa Fe

I got debts to pay in Santa Fe
It's judgement day in Santa Fe
