Track 3.
INTRO
Yeah, who is it? THE GRIMM REAPER. Go away, there?s nobody home.
Western Union, may I help you?
VERSE 1.
I wanna send a telegram and it goes like this
To Mr. G. Reaper, I don?t know the address
Mr. G. Reaper give me half a chance
I just ain?t ready for that brimstone dance.
VERSE 2.
I have things to do as you very well know
I have very very many many places to go
I know you have your orders and you?ve been here before
But why not walk on by and take the neighbor next door?
BRIDGE (Instrumental)
VERSE 3.
I?ve got people to see and parties to attend
I wish the hell I knew if you were Heaven-sent
I know now why you?re here and I know why I must part
But I still need half a chance to mend this guilty heart.
VERSE 4.
I wanna make it clear that I ain?t goin? now
Gonna build a new life by the sweat of my brow
Well, I don?t know, I just don?t know about you Mr. Reaper
All I do know is I ain?t goin? now; ain?t goin? now;
Ain?t goin? now; I ain?t goin? now.
