lyrics

When that Old Rider comes on his black horse in the night
and he's knocking at your door
You can't turn him out, you know why he's there
just never thought this moment would come

Your dealing days are over, there's nowhere left to go
The iron in the fire is growing cold
Best not to keep him waiting as he calls out your name
from his book you signed so many years ago

There's nowhere left to run to
There's nowhere left to go
Can't go back the way you came
All the money in your pocket won't do you any good
Old Rider gets his due just the same

You can't trick the trickster, can't fool the old goat
All your charm won't save you now
A deal is a deal and he's come to collect
There's nothing left to offer but your soul
