1
I went down
2
To the Mary Carter paint store
3
I said give me one of them
4
Smith and Wesson, Magnum 44s
5
'Cause there's a man that the law let loose
6
And justice was not done
7
This man, he killed my wife
8
And my only little son
9
I'll never forget the way
10
He looked all through the trial
11
He had a big named lawyer
12
And he had that smirky smile
13
Oh yeah, he got you off
14
On a technicality
15
But you'll have to grow wings and fly
16
To ever get away from me
17
'Cause I got rights
18
I got rights too
19
And this time there won't be no damn lawyer
20
And system to protect you
21
But I'm gonna read you
22
I'm gonna read you your rights
23
You gotta right to know that you're gonna go
24
To hell one of these black nights
25
And when the trial was over
26
He had the nerve to say, that's the way it goes
27
I said, "Well, hoss you better get you some corks
28
'Cause you're gonna have to plug up a few holes"
29
Guess he thought I was talking
30
Just to pass away time
31
But it kinda looks different now
32
On his knees begging for his life
33
Hey, I got rights
34
I got some rights too
35
And this time there won't no damn lawyers
36
And systems to protect you
37
But I'm gonna read you
38
I'm gonna read you your rights
39
Because I want you to know that you're gonna go
40
To hell one of these black nights
41
Now, this time need no damn lawyers
42
And systems to save you
