been out on the road so long that I begin to see
traces of the drifters that came before me
dogs without a home no chain no leash
bones of their masters in their starvin teeth

I’m a lost soul a travelin man
I play guitar in the devil’s band
I smoke and I drink what can I say
bury my sins in the old fashioned way

chorus:
and I’ll carry the coffin
all the way

I’m haunted by ghosts that don’t let me go
like those come from pages of lovecraft and poe
my heart it cries for those that I’ve known
but I keep on movin the road is my home

I’m a lost soul a travelin man
I play guitar in the devil’s band
I smoke and I drink what can I say?
bury my sins the old fashioned way

the backs of my brothers I cover when I stand
don't trust a vamp she'll fuck you if she can
but I keep on movin it's the only way I know
up with the fire and on with the show

I’m a lost soul a travelin man
I play guitar in the devil’s band
I smoke and I drink what can I say?
bury my sins the old fashioned way
