I'm gonna keep that diamond in my mind
For there's hell upon the breeze
There's hell upon the breeze
Six riders ride

They say I must be the devil's child
And the hell upon the breeze
Six riders ride

And all my days I been the losin' kind
And the hell upon the breeze
Love, it ain't mine

Killed my daddy and took his .45
He was no good, though
He was no good
He had to die

Lightning hits the church, the women cry
And the hell upon the breeze
No God in sight

Six riders stand upon the ridge tonight
O Lord, they have found me
My time is nigh
