01:00I walked up to the screen door and I heard this awful noise
01:05I moved on to the living room and there sat my two boys
01:10I said where's mama and they both pointed to the bedroom down the hall
01:15I ain't never been a fighting man but red was all I saw
01:21See brother cause I've been down and I've been out and I know how it feels
01:27To stand up for what you think is right and get knocked off your heels
01:32And if murdering a man who didn't understand just what she meant to me
01:37It means alright here in this cell for eternity
01:42Well then mister I'm as guilty as it may
01:50Well I wish I had me a picture of what his face looked like
01:56When I kicked in my bedroom door and raised my 45
02:00I said I ain't the kind to hurt a woman and I hope you understand
02:07Somebody's got to die today son it looks like you're the man
02:11See brother cause I've been down and I've been out and I know how it feels
02:18To stand up for what you think is right and get knocked off your heels
02:23And if murdering a man who didn't understand just what she meant to me
02:28It means alright here in this cell for eternity
02:33Well then mister I'm as guilty as can be
02:52That's what I told that jury
02:54That's what I told that judge
02:57And I knew there'd be hell to pay if I fulfilled my grudge
03:02See I don't mind these prison bars tucked off in these pine trees
03:08One thing about that cheating woman she won't cheat again on me
03:13See brother now I've been down and I've been out and I know how it feels
03:19To stand up for what you think is right and get knocked off your heels
03:25And if murdering a man who didn't understand just what she meant to me
03:30It means alright here in this cell for eternity
03:35Well then mister I'm as guilty as can be
03:39I said of murdering a man who didn't understand just what she meant to me
03:45It means alright here in this cell for eternity
03:50Well then mister I'm as guilty as can be
03:56Go ahead and lock me up boy
03:58Not guilty anyway
04:00I'll be guilty anyway
04:14I'll be guilty anyway
