[C] [G] [D]
[Bb] [Gm] [D]
I went [G] down to the Mary [G] Carter paint store.
I [D] said, give me one [G] of them Smith & Wesson Magnum 44's.
[D] Cause there's a [G] man that the [C] law let [G] loose and justice was not done.
[F] This man [G] killed my wife and my only [D] little son.
I'll [G] never forget [D] the way [G] he looked all through the trial.
[D] He had his big name lawyer [Bm] and he had [G] that snarky [G] smile.
[D] Well yeah, he got you [G] off on a technicality.
[F] But you have [G] to grow wings and [C] fly to ever get [D] away from me.
Cause I [G] got rights, I got [Dm] rights too.
[C] And this time there won't [G] be no damn [Gm] lawyer in the system to protect [D] you.
[Gb] But I'm [G] gonna read you, I'm gonna read you [Dm] your rights.
[D] You [C] got a right to know [G] that you gonna go [Bb] to hell [F] one of these [C] black nights.
[D] And when the trial was over he had the [Bm] nerve to say [G] that's the way it goes.
[Dm] [D] I said, well Hoss you [C] better get you some corks [G] cause you're gonna have to plug up a few [Dm] holes.
[D] [Dm] Yes he thought [C] I was talking [G] just to pass away time.
[Dm] [Gb] But it kinda [G] looks different now [C] on his knees [G] begging for [Dm] his life.
[D] [G] Hey I got rights, I got some [D] rights too.
[G] And this time there won't be no damn lawyers [Gm] in the system to protect [D] you.
[Dm] [D] But I'm gonna [G] read you, I'm gonna read you [Dm] your [D] rights.
[Dm] Because [G] I want you to know that you gonna go [Bb] to hell [G] one of these black [C] nights.
[D]
[Bb] [D] No, [G] and this time there ain't no damn lawyers [Bb] in the system to save [C] you.
