About the Artist
Lyrics
[Verse 1] I saw her standing on her front lawn Just a-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, we had us some fun [Verse 4] Now, the jury brought in a guilty verdict And the judge, he sentenced me to death Midnight in a prison storeroom With leather straps across my chest [Verse 5] Sheriff, when the man pulls that switch, sir And snaps my poor head back You make sure my pretty baby Is sittin' right there on my lap [Verse 6] They declared me unfit to live Said into that great void my soul'd be hurled They want to know why I did what I did Well, sir, I guess there's just a meanness in this world
