Ooh yeah... I got a letter this mornin'
Do you reckon how it read?
I got a letter this mornin’
Said, "Hurry, your love is dead"
It said, "hurry baby... hurry, hurry your love is dead"

So, I grabbed up my suitcase, and I took off down the road
When I got there she was layin'... layin' on a coolin’ board
I walked up right close said... babe I'll see ya on Judgment Day yeah

Now there was a thousand people standin'
Yea the room turned around
I didn't know that I loved her 'til they put her in the ground
I didn't know that I loved her 'til they put her in the ground...
Ah take it... yeah!

I said Lord have mercy on my Wicked Soul
Ooh I wouldn't have mistreat you baby, oh for my weight in Gold
I said, Lordy, Lord have mercy
Wouldn’t mistreat you for my weight in Gold

Well, I folded up my arms and I sadly walked away
I said, "Farewell honey, gonna see you on Judgment Day"
I said, "Goodbye child, gonna meet you on Judgment Day"
Ahhhh! Yeahhhh... My... my oh... my Soul my Wicked Soul!!!
Judgment Day yeah...
