The Reaper Came Riding My Name

He didn’t call me by the road I chose, He rode the name the wind still knows I heard his boots, I heard his flame — The Reaper came riding my name

The Reaper came riding my name — Through the dust, through the fire, through the rain I didn’t run, I didn’t break — But he came riding my name Yeah, the Reaper came riding my name — And I ain’t bowed, not today

He chased me through miles where the dead don’t sleep, Through rivers too red, through trails too steep But I held my line, I stayed the same — While the Reaper kept riding my name

The Reaper came riding my name — Through the dust, through the fire, through the rain I didn’t run, I didn’t break — But he came riding my name Yeah, the Reaper came riding my name — And I ain’t bowed, not today

I asked him, "You call me, but do you know my road?" He said, "Boy, I ride what you’ve never showed" But I burned that trail, I set that flame — And still, he came riding my name

The Reaper came riding my name — Through the dust, through the fire, through the rain I didn’t run, I didn’t break — But he came riding my name Yeah, the Reaper came riding my name — And I ain’t bowed, not today
