Well they're building a gallows outside my cellI've got 25 minutes to goAnd the whole town's waitin' just to hear me yellI've got 24 minutes to goWell they gave me some beans for my last mealI've got 23 minutes to goBut nobody asked me how I feelI've got 22 minutes to goWell I sent for the governor and the whole dern bunchwith 21 minutes to goAnd I sent for the mayor but he's out to lunchI've got 20 more minutes to goThen the sheriff said boy I gonna watch you diegot 19 minutes to goSo I laughed in his face and I spit in his eyegot 18 minutes to goNow hear comes the preacher for to save my soulwith 13 minutes to goAnd he's talking bout' burnin' but I'm so coldI've 12 more minutes to goNow they're testin' the trap and it chills my spine11 more minutes to goAnd the trap and the rope aw they work just finegot 10 more minutes to goWell I'm waitin' on the pardon that'll set me free with9 more minutes to goBut this is for real so forget about megot 8 more minutes to goWith my feet on the trap and my head on the noosegot 5 more minutes to goWon't somebody come and cut me loosewith 4 more minutes to goI can see the mountains I can see the skieswith 3 more minutes to goAnd it's to dern pretty for a man that don't wanna die2 more minutes to goI can see the buzzards I can hear the crows1 more minute to goAnd now I'm swingin' and here I go-o-o-o-o-o-!
