) Death Roe Wayne Ray Chavis Songtext
von Wayne Ray Chavis

They found a note
On his arm and it said
Say a prayer to heaven
With a message for my Dad
To meet me on the peer
Of God′s golden shore
We'll go deep sea fishing
In my boat named Death Roe
An innocent man serving time
Served his sentence life and a day
On death row he waits his day of fate


Well here′s how the story goes
If you'll loan me your ear
The warden sent a phone through the guard to the inmate
When he handed him the phone
He called Momma
Said Momma they gonna set me free
The preacher said my sins have been forgiven
And Jesus has saved my soul
So say a prayer to Heaven
With a message to tell Dad
I'll meet him on the peer
Of God′s golden shore

And we′ll go deep sea fishing
In my boat named Death Roe

Now Momma
Don't you cry
′Cause I'm gonna know what it feels like
To live forgiven and see Heavens sky
I′m gonna see how the other side is living
On the sweet bye and bye
And I'll see Angels smiling
As I′m washing my Savior's feet
And everyone there will love me
'Cause in Heaven they don′t hate

Aahh Momma
I gotta let you go now
See I got some plans
They gonna walk me down the hall now
Gonna put me in God′s hands


Now he's serving life
On Death Roe living right
He sleeps with Angels every night
In this Eternal life
On Death Roe
He′s serving eternal life
On Death Roe he living
