about

Probably the darkest thing that I’ve ever written, this story is told in the first person, from the POV of an abusive husband who has tracked down his terrified runaway wife. I just tried to put myself in a Johnny Cash place. I figured that the performance and production required the same; so, hence the mono.

lyrics

1.
C'mon Angel, come on down
Oh yeah, I know why you left town
I've come all this way to find you
Won't you please just come on down?
I've been thinking 'bout the monsters
I've been thinking 'bout them hounds
I've been thinking I can duck ‘em
Won't you please just come on down?

-c-
Well it won't be like it has been
Though I can't tell you why
I can't promise I'll be perfect
But I can promise that I'll try
If you'll just come back home with me
We'll start up from the ground
And we can make it better
Won't you please just come on down?


2.
C'mon Angel, come on please
At least come have a talk with me
I've got a lot I’ve need to tell you
C'mon Angel, come on please
Now I'm coming to your door
You know we've been through this before
And I know that you will let me in
So let's talk a little more

-c2-
It'll be just like it has been
Because I know you love your man
And you know that I love you, girl
More than either of us can stand
Now I'm waiting for your answer
I’m gonna take you back hometown
I'm the only one who loves you
Won't you please just come on down?

(solo)
(repeat –c2-)

3.
Well now Angel, you forced my hand
And I am a violent man
But I've never been mad like this before
You'd better run while you still can...
