My brother dies and left me
My mother moved away
And i been gone now for so long
How long i cannot say
And i am left to wonder
What i'm doing here
Guess i got to pay for
The sins of all my years
I got to pay
For the sins
Of all my years
I been talking to the lord
Sweet jesus let me be
And please keep the devil
Far away from me
Cause i have outrun my fears
Guess i got to pay for the sins of all my years
But i won't be afraid
And i will find a way
No, i won't be afraid
Of the sins of all my years
If i should live to be half a century
Is there a way that i can pay and
Live forever free cause
My spirit is breaking
There's not much fight left here
Guess i got to pay for the sins of all my years
But i won't be afraid and i will find a way
No no i won't be afraid if i have to
Pay and pay
If i have to pay and pay and pay
For the sins of all my years
