Hitman Coming To Collect
 
Kill the
Dirty reaper
Hitman coming
To collect
Train songs
Derailed
Engine Failed
Coffin lid nailed
Shut out the
Black plague
Dirty grim reaper
Pulling your leg
 
White diamonds
Blue sapphires
Silver scythe
Named Orcus
Eye of Horus
Silence the liars
 
Postured
On the seat 
Greyhound bus
Down to the 
Undercoat rust
Subway fracas
Hitman coming
To collect
Whiskey songs
Stetsons with
A custom fit
There's gonna
Be a hit
Charting the top
Ten
 
Highway men
Nashville bandits
On the stage
Newspaper left
Turned to the 
Obituary page
Horses teamed
Recording hoof
Beats the flowers
Going to their
Funeral
 
Strongbox fulla coins
Hit Man
Heist buries the wage 
Bribed to switch the
Oats in the burlap
Sack the quarterback
There's gonna
Be a hit
Grass stains
On the knee
Hitman coming
To collect
The fee
 
Kill the
Dirty reaper
Weed buried
In Snow
Don't you know
He plays all sides
Of the show
Triple cross
Who he is today
Is not who he is
Tomorrow
Newspaper left
Turned to the 
Obituary page
Brings no sorrow
Kilo cash and carry
Steal and borrow
Kill the
Dirty reaper
Hitman coming
To collect
 
Mexico Moscow
Know what
He did with
Your coke
Traded it
For a Dubai
Handshake
A gold rake
And a loaded
Milkshake Double
Cross Country
Cocaine Lane
Dead End
Dirty reaper
Hitman coming
To collect
