My girl is gone with the wind

 and I am blown in million pieces

so tired of love and playing games

 infected by my hate

Says John and looks at himself

 in his late great grandma's mirror

left hand is so very heavy from the weight

 of Smith and from Wesson

hush Johnny,

Jesus' gonna come here

find your ass

long before the police gets you

wind will keep blowing

man will keep moaning

dead river keep on floating

 and floating and floating forever

 forever and ever

 please believe me

So Johnny says to himself

 have you really thought this over?

my god, my impulse tells me so

 so I guess I have.

But when she finds that you're gone

 And your revenge has been accomplished

you'll burn in hell in all eternity

 so really what's the point

but maybe

Jesus' gonna save

everyone will know

that I did the right thing

Preachers keep on knowing

sun will keep on glowing

dead river keep on floating

 and floating and floating forever

 forever and ever

 forever and ever

 please believe me

 I'm so sorry that I left you

 I'm sorry that I let you go

Sorry but I have to know

If it's true what they say

that in the end the only

thing eternal is the death

and the death is forever and

ever

 forever and ever

 forever and ever

 please believe me
