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
