Ive gotta get a message to you Songtext / Lyric

The preacher talked to me and he smiled

Said, "Come and walk with me, come and walk one more mile.

Now for once in your life you're alone

but you ain't got a dime, there's no time for the phone."



I've just got to get a message to you, hold on, hold on.

One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on.






I told him I'm in no hurry

but if I broke her heart, won't you tell her I'm sorry.

And for once in my life I'm alone

and I've got to let her know just in time before I go.



I've just go to get a message to you, hold on, hold on.

One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on.



Well I laughed but that didn't hurt

and it's only her love that keeps me wearing this dirt.

Now I'm crying but deep down inside

well I did it to him, now it's my turn to die.

I've just got to get a message to you, hold on, hold on.

One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on.
