Springsteen, Bruce - Dead Man Walkin' Lyrics
There's a pale horse comin'
And I'm gonna ride it
I'll rise in the morning
My fate decided it
I'm a dead man walkin'
In Saint James Parish
I was born and Christened
Now I've got my story
Mister, ain't no need for you to listen
It's just a dead man talkin'
Once I had a job, I had a girl
Between our dreams and actions lies this world
Their blood and tears rushed over me
All I could feel was the drugs and the shotgun
And my fear up inside me
Like a dead man talkin'
'Neath the summer sky my eyes went black
Sister I won't ask for forgiveness, my sins are all I have
Now the clouds above my prison
Move slowly 'cross the sky
There's a new day comin'
And my dreams are full tonight

Springsteen, Bruce Dead Man Walkin' Comments
A gem for mankind
Simply amazing track from a guy who has had a lot of those. Seems to be a slightly different version than the soundtrack?
Nobody writes songs like Bruce Springsteen. Awesome.
Music composed by nusrat fateh ali khan
Class song and class movie
Sins are all 59 people have.
you never did any "walkin" in Southeast Asia since you dodged the draft while your friends fought and died....
Robert James Chinnery:
If the man himself was answering you he would be saying this - he would say that some people are not wired up to be soldiers, to be fighters, killers etc. And to men like this, going to war would be unnatural to them and everything they believe in. Not all men can suddenly become killers just because someone else wants them to be, or pushes/forces it onto them. Some men have a strong mind and will of their own - of who they themselves want to be. Though it was very sad & unfortunate regarding all those lives that were lost. But HE was not to blame for that, but more the fault of the higher power that sent & forced them out there. They were the victims of that higher power - not of HIM. I rest my case.
Trés belle ballade. Merci Bruce. Merci pour ce partage.
🎶🎵🎼💛💚😥
Trés belle mélodie écoutée sur France Inter aujourd'hui. Je vais chercher une traduction. Magnifique.
Bruce! Haunting Song
Draft Dodger coward walking that's you Springsteen hiding from the Vietnam War
Sister I won’t ask for forgiveness , my sins are all I have
This movie is the one of the best movie I've ever seen😍✨
tolles Lied -great song
"Sister, I won't ask for forgiveness. My sins are all I have".
Holy shit!
Bruce Springsteen sticks on ice. He is now worth listening to.
If that would have been my daughter that they did that horrible act to I would have killed them both! Especially the older guy!
Sean Penn did great job acting.
Reap what you sow
exactly.... ummm so the real guy well it was a composite character had a history of raping teenage girls in Slidell and stab the shit out of one. but we get a Bruce Springsteen song out of it.. Mohh ohn dahn to New Awlins poor man's life buuuuut a dreeeam Ahhhh Dead Man Walking give me a fucking break
springsteen can eat shit... but i love this fuckin song
Great song, Great movie.
Bruce always finds words... Perfect song for a perfect movie!
here's a pale horse comin'
And I'm gonna ride it
I'll rise in the morning
My fate decided it
I'm a dead man walkin'
I'm a dead man walkin'
In Saint James Parish
I was born and Christened
Now I've got my story
Mister, ain't no need for you to listen
It's just a dead man talkin'
Once I had a job, I had a girl
Between our dreams and actions lies this world
Hey in the deep forest
Their blood and tears rushed over me
All I could feel was the drugs and the shotgun
And my fear up inside me
Like a dead man talkin'
'Neath the summer sky my eyes went black
Sister I won't ask for forgiveness, my sins are all I have
Now the clouds above my prison
Move slowly 'cross the sky
There's a new day comin'
And my dreams are full tonight
Good movie..the greatest song!!😍
Una de las genialidades de El Jefe...
And thats why he is the BOSS
This song dares you to empathise with the abuser, the rapist, the murderer, alongside the abused, the raped, the murdered.
Why should we? Doesn't that go against all decency? A good question... perhaps because if we don't, then we have only law, and no grace. No forgiveness, only condemnation.
My instinct when I hear abuse is to condemn. But a famous man in a famous book might have said it well - "judge not, or you too will be judged".
I can only try and do as Sister Prejean set the example to do and still does, as of this writing: empathise with both sides, for the betterment hopefully of everyone.
Beautiful song and a great movie.
Sad...very sad...
Bruce you are my favorite music icon ever
I can feel the emotion.....what a song written by the best songwriter....
Fantasztikus zene,nagyon jó film,szereplők,rendező.
Awesome movie awesome song
Esta buena canción la grabo BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN y la canto y la publico en el año 1996
Beautiful!!
Guy is just the greatest
Sad and beautiful world...
Great singer... Great song... Great movie...
the drumline sounds like the ticking of a clock
upon the pale horse rideth death, my latest poem.
goosebumps galore
Muy buena película
he has a knack for nailing down the feel of a movie....perfectly.
america, springsteen, hornsby and korg m1 <3
come to the isle of man ,bruce. the drugs and the shotgun
you're important for us, bruce springsteen. thank you always.
Yeah he doesn't pay much tax on his massive properties....and he was a draft dodger during N'am
@Robert James Chinnery
So, if someone isn't into fighting & killing then they get flack for it. Some people are just more peaceful........ or musical.
@BigCityJungleCat EnvisageThat I don't give a shit about any of that crap. Springsteen is writing some hymn about two total scumbags. Absolute scumbags: Elmo Patrick Sonnier and Robert Lee Willie who raped and murdered teenagers and I got some rock star singing, "Mohhh on down to po ole me in New Awlins. A poor mahn's dreams." I'd pull the switch myself and not lose a minute of sleep
great song for a great hard movie from excellent Tim Robbins and genius Susan Sarandon and Sean Penn
But Sean Penn was involved but he didn't support shooting the victim as we see in the forest... Is this okay?
no he killed the boy and rapped the girl, this is the plot twist
That's not really a plot twist
Tom T ye i know :p
One of the greatest man who ever lived...
Love this! Awesome film too! Thanks for sharing! Peace 😊 ✌
from a family member who's brothers were cut down lest we forget!!!
the man,the boss:)
Brilliant!
You ever see this? I didn't think so
What makes you think no one's seen this?
Lot of mentally challenged posters on this video : (
there;s a pale horse coming,
Bruce,Bruce,Bruce!!
why awyas some1 do thumbs down ???
wow this is me :)
who'd you kill?
And how are you posting on youtube if you've been executed?
Its metafore dear.....wtf is problem with you???
Don't use words you can't spell, dear. Also, it's not a metaphor
Spell my ass sick fuck :D:D:D
So explain how this is you...
. . . so much pain and suffering . . . caused by some who decided to behave as reckless monsters with their hearts filled with the ice-cold void of nothingness of Death . . . so deeply lost in their own existence, . . . except perhaps in the words of poetry of Bruce.
This movie has left a deep cut in my heart....
I love Susan Sarandon and Sister Helen Prejean.
My survival Song i have lost so many tears for my lovely wife Angelina
What a songwriter Springsteen is...the best ever in my opinion
Totally agree
Oh you mean The Undertaker? XD

..YOUR VOICE GIMME THE STRENGHT MAN.....
just few minutes of music but alot of emotions
Springsteen is the greatest ever in my opinion
Great movie and song.
Ms Sarandon, Mr Penn and Bruce were all at their best.
epic!!!!!!
Great song...
I won't ask for forgivness couse the sins is all i have. wow
I cried a river when I watched this movie, and watching this video I almost cried again.
Powerful movie and song! It should have won the oscar.
Between our dreams and actions lies this world

Reste in pacem, Marvin Wilson...
the Boss wrote the PERFECT song for that movie
yes he is!!! I'm from belgium(I normally speak french and dutch) and I learned english thanks to his great poems ( songs); "jungeland", "my father's house", "indepedence day", "the river"etc, etc...My english teatcher didn't understand how I sometimes used some (american) words and that I also found mistakes in her own sentences, I have to thank Bruce for that, and other greats songswritters like Linsdey Buckigham ( FM), dire straits, and a of course Aimée Mann!!!
Dedicated to a boy, before killing himself, listened to this song..
Utter brilliance from the consumate songwriter of my lifetime
stupenda
Just may be the greatest song Bruce Springsteen ever wrote. He's written many great songs, but this one just stands out in the crowd like a saint.
Great film, superb Springsteen
This is the Obama campaign song.
Man, he is a genius... In his music as in his lyrics... One of the greatest figures in music...
@erdooomini you're right!!!!
great film and great song...
Una canción simbólica
Once I had a job I had a girl
Between our dreams and actions lies this world
what a songwriter !!!!
The Boss, one of the best musicians of the last fifthy years...
So underrated
I was for the death penalty before I saw this movie... I'm 18 years old and censored to much but I cried in my law class when I saw this movie.
This should had won the Oscar!
Just the song I was needing ATM, awesome
excellent film, excellent song!
