They say that no man is an island
  And good things come to those who wait
  But the things I hear are there just to remind me
  Every dog will have his day
    The spirits, they intoxicate me
  I watched them infiltrate my soul
  They try to say it's too late for me
  Tell my guns I'm coming home
    I swear I'm gonna live forever
  Tell my maker he can wait
  I'm riding somewhere south of heaven
  Heading back to Santa Fe
  It's judgment day in Santa Fe
    Once I was promised absolution
  There's only one solution for my sins
  You gotta face your ghosts and know with no illusions
  That only one of you is going home again
    And I blame this world for making a good man evil
  It's this world that can drive a good man mad
  And it's this world that turns a killer into a hero
  Well I blame this world for making a good man bad
    Now I ain't getting into heaven if the devil has his way
  I swear I'm gonna live forever
  Heading back to Santa Fe
  Got debts to pay in Santa Fe
  It's judgment day in Santa Fe
  Lord have mercy
    [Guitar solo]
    So I save a prayer when I need it most
  To the Father, Son and the Holy Ghost
  And sign it from a sinner with no name
  When I meet my maker
  Will he close the book on the hearts I broke and the lives I took ?
  Will he walk away 'cause my soul's too late to save ?
    Now I ain't getting into heaven
  If the devil has his way
  I swear I'm gonna live forever
  Heading back to Santa Fe
  Got debts to pay in Santa Fe
  It's judgment day in Santa Fe
