Dead saint on my necklace
 Whiskey in my hand
 Razor in my pocket
 Baby, I'm your man

 I signed up to play and then it hit me
 Got a nice leather jacket but it don't quite fit me
 I [bad word] back all those who quit me
 But I'm leavin' tonight before [bad word] and get me

 Righteous men and scoundrels
 Banded together to stop The Four
 They burned witches, they pounded nails
 Then The Fifth Horseman came and tipped the scales

 Slow resistance, I have seen it
 Yeah, I said that too but I didn't mean it
 The word is war, you did not dream it
 You made the mess but I'm gonna clean it

 Righteous men and scoundrels
 Banded together to stop The Four
 They burned witches, they pounded nails
 Then The Fifth Horseman came and tipped the scales

 Jaw teeth as knives to snatch the greedy
 And plead the cause of the poor and needy
 Been savin' up to finally purchase
 The courage to harm those who deserve it

 Righteous men and scoundrels
 Banded together to stop The Four
 They burned witches, they pounded nails
 Then The Fifth Horseman came and tipped the scales

 I'm not there yet but I'm gettin' close
 I eat gravel at the side of the road
 I smell of blood and kerosene
 What's rarely done is rarely seen.
