Corpse in Corpus Christi

It was the spring of 1881, when Raymond Davis Jr was forced to use his gun Ray was quite the hunter but never had to draw human blood That was until the night he found Jenny dead in the texas mud There's a corpse in Corpus Christi, and there's fixin' to be another one here soon For every angel Heaven gains, the devil's waitin' on a name So Raymond went to find out who to blame Well Raymond Davis Jr rode off to town In and out of every store, just askin' around The same godforsaken name, kept on comin' up So Ray started makin' his way to ol' Jimmy Walker's farm, hummin' Jenny's favorite hymn with a gun hangin' on his arm There's a corpse in Corpus Christi, and there's fixin' to be another one here soon For every angel Heaven gains, the devil's waitin' on a face So Raymond went to put Jimmy in a grave By the time Raymond got there, the sun was 3 hours gone Lights were all off, the wind began to moan Jimmy left the door unlocked, much to his demise Raymond walked right in, and shot him 'tween the eyes There's two corpses in Corpus Christi, Raymond had to serve justice in Jenny's name For every angel Heaven gains, the devil's owed a roommate Raymond went and helped Jimmy move in
