Wall, Colter - Ballad Of A Law Abiding Sophisticate Lyrics






Well, marry me
To a rope and a tree
What that ol' judge called first degree

And all the folks around town
Swore to lay me
In the ground
They found out I put that poor boy down

You see I
Did not much care
For the way
That he'd sit and glare
So I closed
His eyes for good
With a bar-room chair

So, gonna lay my poor bones
Past Appalachian stones
Far beneath that cold ground all alone

Oh but if you're asking me
Where I would rather be

It was worth it
To see that boy
Cut from the knees

    "Before you die do you regret killing him?"
    "Nope, totally worth it."

  3. R.... J....

    wow, what an excellent example of everything wrong with southern culture. "I beat a guy to death with a bar stool because he looked at me, and now I've got the death penalty, but it's totes worth it." God help us.

    R.... J....

    Meh, this is pretty much what I expected, it IS the internet after all.
    But I understand your retort.
    💜✌

    R.... J....

    What? This is a bluesy country song that is presenting a made up story.

    R.... J....

    It's a murder ballad you stupid fucking idiot dont be such a tight asshole

    R.... J....

    Hes Canadian so it would be northern not southern, prick

    R.... J....

    What kind of goddamn door knob sucking retard do you have to be to so literally and incorrectly interpret a completely made up scenario in a song?

  7. S.... S....

    Well, marry me

    And all the folks around town
    Swore to lay me

    They found out I put that poor boy down

    You see I
    Did not much care
    For the way
    That he'd sit and glare
    So I closed
    His eyes for good
    With a bar-room chair

    So, gonna lay my poor bones
    Past Appalachian stones
    Far beneath that cold ground all alone

    Oh but if you're asking me

    Cut from the knees
