25 Minutes To Go Lyrics - At Folsom Prison - Johnny Cash

Well they're building a gallows outside my cell I've got 25 minutes to go 

And the whole town's waitin' just to hear me yell I've got 24 minutes to go 

Well they gave me some beans for my last meal I've got 23 minutes to go 

But nobody asked me how I feel I've got 22 minutes to go 

Well I sent for the governor and the whole dern bunch with 21 minutes to go 

And I sent for the mayor but he's out to lunch I've got 20 more minutes to go 

Then the sheriff said boy I gonna watch you die got 19 minutes to go 

So I laughed in his face and I spit in his eye got 18 minutes to go 

Now hear comes the preacher for to save my soul with 13 minutes to go 

And he's talking bout' burnin' but I'm so cold I've 12 more minutes to go 

Now they're testin' the trap and it chills my spine 11 more minutes to go 

And the trap and the rope aw they work just fine got 10 more minutes to go

Well I'm waitin' on the pardon that'll set me free with 9 more minutes to go 

But this is for real so forget about me got 8 more minutes to go 

With my feet on the trap and my head on the noose got 5 more minutes to go 

Won't somebody come and cut me loose with 4 more minutes to go 

I can see the mountains I can see the skies with 3 more minutes to go 

And it's to dern pretty for a man that don't wanna die 2 more minutes to go 

I can see the buzzards I can hear the crows 1 more minute to go 

And now I'm swingin' and here I go-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o!
