[Verse 1]

I was walking in the sun on a Tuesday morning

When the thunder struck there wasn't a cloud in the sky

I woke up this morning without a memory

That only made the pain more real (More real)

And the past six months have changed me

I don't even feel like a man

Walk around all day just hidin', hurtin'

But the thoughts of her

Just won't let me go (No, they won't let me go)


[Chorus]

Well, I am going down to hell

Yeah, Imma wake up the devil

Tell him who I am and why I'm here

Maybe the fires of eternal damnation

Will help take away all of my tears

No, it won't let me go


[Verse 2]

Thunder rode on that Tuesday morning

All I could think about was hail coming down

So, I'd rather be in hell, than I would right here

Wasting my time, thinking about you

Yeah, and if whiskey don't kill me then her memory will

This one's a red stone upon my mind

I guess old George's been right where I'm at

Lay her right down, hungover


[Chorus]

I'm going down to hell

Yeah, Imma wake up the devil

Tell him who I am and why I'm here

Maybe the fires of eternal damnation

Help take away all of my tears

No they won't let me go

Yeah
