|
She told me he was beating her today |
|
And she showed me all the bruises on her face |
|
I said, baby, can |
|
I make it all |
|
OK She said, honey, you should make him go away |
|
There's a hundred thousand dollars in the bank |
|
And the policy he took out yesterday |
|
We can live outside the country for awhile |
|
Until things smooth over and get under control |
|
There's a tattoo of your name across my soul |
|
I bought a rifle and black guns without a name |
|
For an alibi she went six states away |
|
When I saw him |
|
I felt fire |
|
I felt cold |
|
Like the devil and the lord wanted my soul |
|
Like the tattoo of your name across my soul |
|
So I shot him in his car until he died |
|
I called to give the signal and she cried |
|
Life has a way of making other plans |
|
She called the cops and said |
|
I was a crazy man |
|
I'm gonna get this thing removed when |
|
I can There was never any policy |
|
And the bruises came from falling on the street |
|
So the judge gave me one hundred thousand years |
|
In the courtroom she was filling up with tears |
|
I saw her hold the lawyer's hand real tight |
|
They looked tired from lack of sleep last night |
|
Seems the whole time she had me under control |
|
With a tattoo of her name across my soul |
|
She got off and |
|
I will never have parole |
|
Just this tattoo of her name across my soul |
|
Just this tattoo of her name across my soul |
|
Just this tattoo of her name across my soul |
