When I get to my life's end
Like I know I will someday
If I see those pearly gates, you know I'll want to walk away
I'll walk away, I'll walk away
And when I get to where I'm going
I know just where I'll stay
When I get to where I'm going
The devil will make me pay
He'll make me pay, he'll make me pay
Lay me down on unhallowed ground
Unjustified
And if I see the man upstairs I'll ask him where he's been
Through famine, flood and war and pain
I'll ask him who the hell he thinks he is
Who the hell he thinks he is
And I'm not proud of the things I've done
I'm proud of what I've dreamed
I'm not proud of those things I've done
But a man only has his means,
only has his means, and I've had mine
Lay me down on unhallowed ground
No one around, not a sound
No one to mourn or curse the day I was born, I'm unjustified
