The Unrepentant Lyrics

Steve Earle

In the middle of the night In the middle of lonely night Stands alone in the pale moonlight Screams out in defiance
He's got no one to turn to You could talk 'til you turn blue He'd just turn his back on you Ain't no compromising
Because he's totally untamed No fear of the unnamed Oh man he'll take the blame 'Cause someone's gotta do it, someone's gotta
He's now out on the highway He's got the key and the right of way His tank is full and his toll's paid Hellbound and determined
He run a dangerous payload When he comes to the crossroads Ah, man it's all timed to explode 'Cause you do see the sky burnin'
Because he's totally untamed No fear of the unnamed Hey man he'll take the blame Someone's gotta do it, someone's gotta
Now he's standin' at hell's door With a bad attitude and a forty-four The Devil said, "What's up man Now what you come here for?"
He said, "Man, let's just get to it" He said, "I always heard that you were the bad one There's a few places I ain't been, a few things I ain't done You got your pitchfork and I got my gun Someone's gotta do it"
'Cause he's totally untamed And no fear of the unnamed Hey man he'll take the blame 'Cause someone's gotta do it
'Cause he's totally untamed And no fear of the unnamed Stand up like a man and take the whole blame 'Cause someone's gotta do it
Someone's gotta Somone's gotta Somone's gotta Totally untamed
