Jungle Drums

24hrs now left for me, my Lord tells me my soul is free
Lawman says that the state won't stay, execution will be today

Jungle drums beat for me, prison walls holding me
Jungle drums beat for me, can't fight what's meant to be

He had a blade and slashed at me, scared by what I'd made him be
I pumped a shot above his head, heart gave out and declared him dead

Jungle drums beat for me, prison walls holding me
Jungle drums beat for me, can't fight what's meant to be

Last meal arrives in time for me, preacher he sends my spirit free
Last hour begins before I pass, his family look from behind the glass

Jungle drums beat for me, prison walls holding me
Jungle drums beat for me, can't fight what's meant to be

I ain't got no last words to say, none that matter much anyway
The doctors here my killing starts, I hope this heals your aching heart

Jungle drums beat for me, prison walls holding me
Jungle drums beat for me, can't fight what's meant to be
