Its hard to hear what he sings somtimes but its 85% right. Sorry for the bad spelling.

The Man Comes Around

Spoken:
And i heard as it were, the niose of thunder.
One of the four beasts saying, come and see, and i saw,
and behold a white horse

Verse 1:
There's a man going round takin' names
And he decieds who to free and who to blame
Everybody won't be treated all the same
There'll be a golden letter reaching down
When the man comes around

Verse 2:
The hairs on your arm will stand up
At the terror in each sip and in each sup
Will you partake off that last offerd cup?
Or disapear into the putters ground
When the man comes around

Chorus:
Hear the tumpets hear the pipers
Onehundredmillion angels singing
Moltitudes are marching to the big ceddeld drum
Vioces calling vioces crying
Some are born and some are dying
It's alfa and omega's kingdomkom

And the wirlwind is in the thorn tree
The virgins are all trimming thier waists
The wirlwind is in the thorn tree
It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks

Verse 3:
Till armagedon no celam no celom
Then the father hen will call his chickens home
The wisemen will bowdown bofore the thrown
And at his feet will cast the golden crowns
When the man comes around

Verse 4:
Whoever is unjust let him be unjust still
Whoever is righteous let him be righteous still
Whoever is filthy let him be filthy still
Listen to the words long writendown
When the man comes around

Chorus:
Hear the tumpets hear the pipers
Onehundredmillion angels singing
Moltitudes are marching to the big ceddeld drum
Vioces calling vioces crying
Some are born and some are dying
It's alfa and omega's kingdomkom

And the wirlwind is in the thorn tree
The virgins are all trimming thier waists
The wirlwind is in the thorn tree
It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks

End:
In mesuerd hundred wieght and penny pounds
When the man comes around

Spoken:
And I heard a vioces in the midst of the four beasts
And I looked and behold, a pale horse
And his name that set on him was death, and hell followd with him.
