I went down to the Mary Cater Paint Store

I said, give me one of them Smith & Wesson Magnum .44s

Cause there's a man that the law let loose and justice was not done

This man he killed my wife and my only little son

I'll never forget the way he looked all through the trial

He had a big name lawyer and he had that smirky smile

Oh yeah, he got you off on a technicality

But you'd have to grow wings and fly to ever get away from me

Cause I got rights

I got rights too

And this time there won't be no damn lawyers and systems to protect you
12
But I'm gonna read you - I'm gonna read you your rights

You got the right to know that you're gonna go to hell one of these black nights
14
And when the trial was over he had the nerve to say that's the way it goes

I said, well hoss you better get you some corks cause your gonna have to plug up a few holes

And this time there won't be no damn lawyers and systems to protect you

Cause I want you to know that your gonna go to hell one of these black nights

Yeah, and this time there aint no damn lawyers and systems to save you
