Pre chorus
 Cutest girl I ever saw, did I love her?
 Then why'd I go and do something so cruel?
 I married her on that summer day, did she love me?
 Well, she said yes so she must've been a fool
 On our honeymoon night instead of making sweet love
 I sat her down and confessed my true history
 I said, "Baby, I love you and I hope you know you're a gift from above,
 but I killed twenty men and the cops are after me."
 Well, she said, "That's okay. I don't care dear
 'Cause I love you anyway.
 Honey, a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do
 so be strong and be brave."
 Well, I'll try
 You know I'll try
 And God said it is good
 And man and woman should
 Become one and be fruitful
 Well, we would if we could
 But we're runnin' from the law
 And we're livin' in a shack
 And I'm gonna burn in hell
 For corruptin' my better half
 Cruisin' down the freeway goin' ninety-five
 We're robbin' convenience stores and tryin' to stay alive
 I'm sorry I got that man back there. Could you ever forgive me?
 For bringin' you into my life when I shoulda let you be
 Well, she said, "That's okay. I don't care dear
 'Cause I love you anyway.
 Honey, a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do
 so be strong and be brave."
 Well, I'll try
 Oh God, you know I'll try
 And God said it is good
 And man and woman should
 Become one and be fruitful
 Well, we would if we could
 But we're runnin' from the law
 And we're livin' in a shack
 And I'm gonna burn in hell
 For corruptin' my better half
 WOO!
 The cops have found our hideout and they shot her
 Why'd they go and do somethin' so cruel?
 She died in my arms, I had to leave her
 I'm sorry, my love, for being such a fool
 But she said, "That's okay. I don't care dear
 'Cause I love you anyway.
 Honey, a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do
 so be strong and be brave."
 Well, I'll try
 Oh Jesus, you know I'll try
 And God said it is good
 And man and woman should
 Become one and be fruitful
 Well, I would if I could
 But I'm runnin' from the law
 And the cops shot down my shack
 And I'm gonna burn in hell
 For corruptin' my better half
 And I'm gonna burn in hell
 For corruptin' my better half
 And I'm gonna burn in hell
 For killing my better half

Cutest girl I ever saw, did I love her?
Then why'd I go and do something so cruel?
I married her on that summer day, did she love me?
Well, she said yes so she must've been a fool

On our honeymoon night instead of making sweet love
I sat her down and confessed my true history
I said, "Baby, I love you and I hope you know you're a gift from above,
but I killed twenty men and the cops are after me."

Well, she said, "That's okay. I don't care dear
'Cause I love you anyway.
Honey, a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do
so be strong and be brave."
Well, I'll try
You know I'll try

And God said it is good
And man and woman should
Become one and be fruitful
Well, we would if we could
But we're runnin' from the law
And we're livin' in a shack
And I'm gonna burn in hell
For corruptin' my better half

Cruisin' down the freeway goin' ninety-five
We're robbin' convenience stores and tryin' to stay alive
I'm sorry I got that man back there. Could you ever forgive me?
For bringin' you into my life when I shoulda let you be

Well, she said, "That's okay. I don't care dear
'Cause I love you anyway.
Honey, a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do
so be strong and be brave."
Well, I'll try
Oh God, you know I'll try

And God said it is good
And man and woman should
Become one and be fruitful
Well, we would if we could
But we're runnin' from the law
And we're livin' in a shack
And I'm gonna burn in hell
For corruptin' my better half
WOO!

The cops have found our hideout and they shot her
Why'd they go and do somethin' so cruel?
She died in my arms, I had to leave her
I'm sorry, my love, for being such a fool

But she said, "That's okay. I don't care dear
'Cause I love you anyway.
Honey, a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do
so be strong and be brave."
Well, I'll try
Oh Jesus, you know I'll try

And God said it is good
And man and woman should
Become one and be fruitful
Well, I would if I could
But I'm runnin' from the law
And the cops shot down my shack
And I'm gonna burn in hell
For corruptin' my better half

And I'm gonna burn in hell
For corruptin' my better half

And I'm gonna burn in hell
For killing my better half
