Once I had me a woman
Everything was goin' my way
She thought I had hung the moon
And she had an angel's face
'Til 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
Well, 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
Well, 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
Than 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
I said, "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
Than 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, yeah
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 that I've been down and I've been out
And I know how it feels
To stand up for what you think is right
Than 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 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 then mister, I'm as guilty as can be
Yeah, go ahead and lock me up, boys
I'm guilty anyways
Everything was goin' my way
She thought I had hung the moon
And she had an angel's face
'Til 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
Well, I walked up to the screen door
And I heard this awful noise
