A Gentleman Came Walking Lyrics & Chords By The Saints

A gentleman came walking, black velvet in the afternoon
best disguise the motive before the end is due

The sun fell from the heavens, the day was as black as night
The flame was burning brighter but there was no light

The wind was howling I listen to the banshee wail
The dogs were howling and I was going insane

I am on a rollercoaster can't you see me slide
I'm going down down down, I'll be here 'till the end of time

I've been drinkin' with the devil and now it's my turn to pay
I got to thinking (baby) it's too late to pray

A gentleman came walking and two whores lie in my bed
A gentleman comes walking and one lies dead
