I'm dead meat, you took away my rights
To be a part of your society
A life, time in prison wouldn't justify
You wanna blow away a sucker, so I have to die

I'm still waiting for the final call
I wanna meet my maker, I'm ready to go
Kill me, kill me, kill me, please, kill me

Give me a reason why you're gonna let me wait
Some kind of punishment before you terminate
You're taking my life for your peace of mind
So let's go, start the show

Death row, I'm ready to go, death row
Let me die, let me go
Death row, I'm ready to go, death row
Let me die, let me go, death row

I'm a dead man walking so get outta my face
Rather die like a man than rotting this way
I hate you and you hate me
You can come and kiss my dignity
You're taking my life for your peace of mind
So let's go, start the show

Death row, I'm ready to go, death row
Let me die, let me go
Death row, I'm ready to go, death row
I'm ready to go, death row, death row

Your justice is not mine
You punish a crime with another crime
If you need to kill me for your peace of mind
Then let's go, start the show

Death row, I'm ready to go, death row
Let me die, let me go
Death row, I'm ready to go, death row
I'm ready to go, death row, death row

Death row, open up 'cause here I come
Death row, knock, knock, knocking
I'm no hero's son
Death row, there's no tears that you can sell
Death row, paid my ticket through the gates of hell

Death row, death row
Let me die, let me go
Death row, death row
