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 intoxicate 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
so i save a prayer
for 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
when i 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
