[Verse 1]
I saw her standing on her front lawn
She was twirling her baton
Me and her went for a ride, sir
And ten innocent people died
[Verse 2]
From the town of Lincoln, Nebraska
With a sawed-off .410 on my lap
Through the badlands of Wyoming
I killed everything in my path
[Verse 3]
I can't say that I'm sorry
For the things that we done
At least for a little while, sir
Me and her had us some fun
[Verse 4]
The jury brought in the verdict
And the judge sentenced me to death
Midnight in a prison storeroom
Leather straps across my chеst
[Verse 5]
Sheriff, when the man pulls that switch, sir
And snaps my poor hеad back
You make sure my pretty baby
Sittin' right there on my lap
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 6]
They declared me unfit to live
They said to that great void my soul will be hurled
They wanted to know why I did what I did
I guess there's just a meanness in this world
