I walk alone

My mamma died when i was nine, done wrong by my pa
he left me cold and lonely one step ahead of the law
trouble's always followed me wherever i go
bad luck is the only luck i have ever known
See i was born to walk alone, my only friend the crow
and even he foresakes me when that north wind starts to blow
many are the lives i have left ruined in my tracks
as many are the reasons for me to watch my back
But oh, don't you judge me 'cause i've done my time in hell
and where this lonely road that i travel will end
i know only too well . . . i walk alone
Those who've felt my fury say the devil begat me
i wish i could deny it but i cannot disagree
most times my name precedes me with tales of evil deeds
there's not a town along this road that does not wish me my godspeed
But oh, don't you judge me 'cause i've done my time in hell
and where this lonely road that i travel will end
i know only too well . . . i walk alone
And there are times it's hard to live with things i've done and said
i curse my father and the demons he left in his stead
damn his loveless eyes, eyes that never gazed
upon his wicked wanderin' son, upon the hell he raised
But oh, don't you judge me 'cause i've done my time in hell
and where this lonely road that i travel will end
i know only too well . . . i walk alone
