Angry Johnny and The Killbillies Sent Him Home Lyrics

Intro:
This morning i took Eddy to the station
Put him on a train sent him home
He came out here just looking for some answers
He only found out what he always knew
He looked for Jesus but he only found the devil
But the devil is an easy man to find
He's looking in your finger on that trigger
He's swimming in that cheap bottle of wine
Good old Sally was a lady of the evening
And Eddy was drunk like every night before
He told her that tonight he'd come to save her
They found her with her skull crushed on the floor
They cornered Eddy down at the old whorehouse
Said he only wanted to go home
Four to three bullets entered Eddy's body
Just like he lived he died there all alone
I went to Sally's funeral in the morning
Just me, the preacher, and the undertaker John
We buried her up there and bought a *****
I sold my gun to pay for her headstone
Eddy found out nothing he didn't already know
But even Jesus can not save someone unwilling to atone
You can blame your sins on your family
On a woman, on a broken heart
But come judgment day when its time to pay
You'll be standing there alone
This morning i took Eddy to the station
Put him on a train sent him home
