Guilty As Can Be |
| Once I had me a woman |
| Everything was goin' my way |
| She thought I had hung the moon |
| And she had an angels face |
| Till' one night I pulled in my drive |
| And somethin' was goin' on |
| There was a long bed Ford in my spot |
| That I damn sure didn’t own |
| So I walked up to the screen door |
| And I heard this awful noise |
| I moved on to the living room and there sat my two boys |
| I said «Where's mama?» |
| And they both pointed to the bedroom down the hall |
| Now, I ain’t ever been a fightin' man |
| But red was all I saw |
| See brother 'cause I’ve been down and I’ve been out |
| And I know how it feels |
| To stand up for what you think is right |
| Then get knocked off your heels |
| And if murderin a man who didn’t understand |
| Just what she meant to me |
| Means I’ll rot here in this cell for eternity |
| Well then mister I’m as guilty as can be |
| Well I wish I had me a picture of what his face looked like |
| When I kicked in my bedroom door and raised my 45 |
| See I ain’t the kind to hurt a woman and I hope you understand |
| But somebody’s got to die today |
| Son it looks like you’re the man |
| See brother 'cause I’ve been down and I’ve been out |
| And I know how it feels |
| To stand up for what you think is right |
| Then get knocked off your heels |
| And if murderin a man who didn’t understand |
| Just what she meant to me |
| Means I’ll rot here in this cell for eternity |
| Well then mister I’m as guilty as can be |
| That’s what I told that jury |
| That’s what I told that judge |
| And I knew there’d be hell to pay if I fulfilled my grudge |
| See I don’t mind these prison bars tucked off in these pine trees |
| One thing about that cheatin' woman |
| She won’t cheat again on me |
| See brother 'cause I’ve been down and I’ve been out |
| And I know how it feels |
| To stand up for what you think is right |
| Then get knocked off your heels |
| And if murderin a man who didn’t understand |
| Just what she meant to me |
| Means I’ll rot here in this cell for eternity |
| Well then mister I’m as guilty as can be |
| I said if murderin a man who didn’t understand |
| Just what she meant to me |
| Means I’ll rot here in this cell for eternity |
| Well than mister I’m as guilty as can be |
| Go ahead and lock me up boys |
| I’m guilty anyways |
