I saw her standin’ on her front lawn just twirlin’
her baton
Me and her went for a ride sir and ten innocent
people died
From the town of lincoln, nebraska with a sawed
off .410 on my lap
Through to the badlands of wyoming I killed
everything in my path
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
some fun
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
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
They declared me unfit to live said into that
great void my soul’d be hurled
They wanted to know why I did what I did
Well sir I guess there’s just a meanness in this
world
