I ain't nothin' but a simple man They call me a redneck, I reckon that I am,
but there's things going on, that makes me mad down to the core.
I have to work like a dog to make ends meat there's croked polititions and crime
on the street, and I'm mader than ****, and I ain't going to take it no more.
They tell our kids to just say no and then some painty waist judge lets a drug dealer go,
he slaps them on the wrist and turns them out, out on the town. Well if I had my
way with people selling dope, I'd take a big tall tree and a short peice of rope, hang em'
up high and let thew swing to the sun goes down.
Well you know whats wrong with the world today, people done gone put there Bibles away,
there living by the law of the jungle, not the law of the land.
Well the good book says so I know its the truth, an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth,
you better watch where you go and remember where you been, thats the way I see it I'm a
simple man.
Thats basicly how the rest of the song goes.
Have fun!!
