Lloyd Carter – See You On The Other Side Lyrics

Verse 1
When I was a young man before I was on the run
I never looked over my shoulder
I dreamed I pick up a gun
So many are good man, draw their last breath
Across over Jordan before they could confess

Chorus
I’ll see you on the other side
I’ll see you on the other side
When they lay me down in the cold hard ground
I’ll see you on the other side

Verse 2
I hade my share of women but never the same one twice
The only one that stole my heart was the Sheriff’s wife
Rumor says I killed her but I swear it wasn’t me
An innocent man will hang in the day
And a guilty man is free

Chorus
I’ll see you on the other side
I’ll see you on the other side
When they lay me down in the cold hard ground
I’ll see you on the other side

Verse 3
I’ve been running from the law man, running from my past
Knowing everyday I live, it might be my last
One day they’ll find and I’ll meet my maker
Or a one way trip, 6 feet deep
In the arms of the army taker

Chorus
I’ll see you on the other side
I’ll see you on the other side
When they lay me down in the cold hard ground
I’ll see you on the other side

Chorus
I’ll see you on the other side
I’ll see you on the other side
When they lay me down in the cold hard ground
I’ll see you on the other side


Song Meaning & Review

This is a song about a man who is at the end of his days, he is ready to face whatever outcome awaits for him tomorrow. In a way, it is almost bleak but hopeful. This kind of attitude is commonly present to people who’ve lived life. Someone who has pushed on through thick and thin, that is why when the end is right around the corner, he has no regrets.
