Lyrics 25 Minutes to Go (Live) - Johnny Cash
Well
they're
building
a
gallows
outside
my
cell
I've
got
25
minutes
to
go
And
the
whole
town's
waitin'
just
to
hear
me
yell
I've
got
23
minutes
to
go
Well
they
gave
me
some
beans
for
my
last
meal
I've
got
22
minutes
to
go
But
nobody
asked
me
how
I
feel
I've
got
22
minutes
to
go
Well
I
sent
for
the
governor
and
the
whole
dern
bunch
with
21
minutes
to
go
And
I
called
up
the
mayor
but
he's
out
to
lunch
I've
got
20
more
minutes
to
go
Then
the
sheriff
said
boy
I
gonna
watch
you
die,
got
19
minutes
to
go
So
I
laughed
in
his
face
and
I
spit
in
his
eye,
18
minutes
to
go
Now
hear
comes
the
preacher
for
to
save
my
soul
with
13
minutes
to
go
And
he's
talking
bout'
burnin'
but
I'm
so
cold
I've
got
12
more
minutes
to
go
Well
they're
testin'
the
trap
and
it
chills
my
spine
11
more
minutes
to
go
And
the
trap
and
the
rope
aw
they
work
just
fine
I've
got
10
more
minutes
to
go
Well
I'm
waitin'
on
the
pardon
that'll
set
me
free,
I've
got
9 more
minutes
to
go
But
this
is
for
real
so
forget
about
me
I've
got
8 more
minutes
to
go
With
my
feet
on
the
trap
and
my
head
on
the
noose
got
5 more
minutes
to
go
Won't
somebody
come
and
cut
me
loose,
I've
got
4 more
minutes
to
go
I
can
see
the
mountains
I
can
see
the
skies,
3 more
minutes
to
go
And
it's
to
dern
pretty
for
a
man
that
don't
wanna
die,
I've
got
2 more
minutes
to
go
I
can
see
the
buzzards
I
can
hear
the
crows,
1 more
minute
to
go
And
now
I'm
swingin'
and
here
I
go-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o!
