AmThey saddled me with bullets and Cthey handed me a gun
and they Fsaid my boy you're going off to wAmar
I saiAmd goodbye to my lover as I walkedC out the door
she said FI'm too afraid I won't see you noAm more
I reaAmssured her with a kiss and like mCy aim I did not miss
and I holFd that memory with me to this dayAm
I saiAmd I'm going across the sea to figCht another one of me
and I knoFw not of the reason or or what foAmr
Chorus
So I jumpFed into the lion's mouth Am
just to sFee what life was really all aboutAm
And if I'm Freturned to the flames and whatCever still remains
oh yeah yFou will see what I was all about Am
For yAmears went on by without a bullet Cin my side
and I thaFnked the Lord that I had survivedAm
When AmI walked through that door I caugCht you naked on the floor
and a parFt of me that survived well it jusAmt died
Chorus
So I put Fyou in the lion's mouth Am
so you coFuld see what life was all about Am
and now youF're returned to the flames and Cwhatever ever still remains
oh yeah nFow you'll see what I was all abouAmt
So I Amclimbed up on the stairs above heCr body where she lay
and I tieFd that noose around my own neck Am
And IAm thank God for all my days and toC forgive my wicked ways
and let hFim without sin cast the first stoAmne
Break
And wAmith that said I jumped into my soCuls eternal bed
and I letF my legs swing beneath my head Am
So ifAm you should ever question the reaCson or what for
oh then cFlearly boy you've never been to wAmar
2xChorus
So I jumpFed into the Lion's Mouth Am
