When The Graveyard Gets A Hold On You Poem by Richard Jarboe

When The Graveyard Gets A Hold On You



jesse james was a legend
jesse james was a killer,
jesse james was shot in the back.
There's a time to wrap it up, a time to begin,
But the graveyard got a hold on him.

Bonnie Parker had a pistol
she robbed banks for a living,
she had the law on her trail,
good things happen, bad things occur,
But the graveyard got a hold on her.

some folk believe in the Lord,
some folk believe in the devil,
some folk don't believe in anything at all.
you got time to work it out, until your time is through,
and the graveyard gets a hold on you.
