Lyrics Read Me My Rights - Brantley Gilbert

Read Me My Rights

Somebody better call the law
We done took it outside we’re about to brawl
Old boy done put his hands on a woman
Where I come from son, the next thing coming is a
Ass whooping in the parking lot
About to drop this fool right in front of the cops
And I ain’t going to run
I’m proud of what I done
Yeah read me my rights, put me in cuffs
Take me downtown, barney lock me up
And I’ll do my time and raise my right hand
I’ll tell the judge that I’d do it again
Well I heard it through the grapevine
Good daddy and a husband is a-doing time
Said his wife and his kids was in the house
Some old boy broke in, man it all went south
When he dropped the hammer on his forty five
Now he’s in the pen;
twenty-five to life
I hate to say, but if it’d have been me
Well, I’d have said
Read me my rights, put me in cuffs
Yeah, take me downtown barney lock me up
I’ll do my time and raise my right hand
I’ll tell the judge that I’d do it again
If I have to put the law in my hands, yeah
Well it has time to break
Because I know right from wrong and if you cross that line
Boy all I gotta say is
All I’ve gotta say, boy
Is read me my rights put me in cuffs
Take me downtown barney lock me up
I’ll do my time and raise my right hand
I’ll tell the judge I’d do it again
Read me my rights, put me in cuffs
Take me downtown, you better lock me up
I’ll do my time and raise my right hand
I’ll tell the judge that I’d do that shit again
