they say that no man is an island

and good things come to those who wait

but the things i hear are there just to remind me

every dog will have his day

the spirits they into icate me

i watched them infiltrate my soul

they try to say it's too late for me

tell my guns i'm coming home

i swear i'm gonna live forever

tell my maker he can wait

i'm riding somewhere south of heaven

heading back to santa fe

it's judgment day in santa fe

once i was promised absolution

there's only one solution for my sins

you gotta face your ghosts and know with no illusions

that only one of you is going home again

and i blame this world for making a good man evil

it's this world that can drive a good man mad

and it's this world that turns a killer into a hero

well i blame this world for making a good man bad

now i ain't getting into heaven if the devil has his way

i swear i'm gonna live forever

heading back to santa fe

got debts to pay in santa fe

it's judgment day in santa fe lord have mercy

so i save a prayer when i need it most to the

father son and the holy ghost and sign it from a

sinner with no name when i meet my maker will he close

the book on the hearts i broke and the lives i took

will he walk away cause my soul's too late to save

now i ain't getting into heaven

if the devil has his way

i swear i'm gonna live forever

heading back to santa fe

got debts to pay in santa fe

it's judgment day in santa fe
