Vārdi: Steve Earle. Nebraska.

I saw her standin on her front lawn just twirlin her baton
Me and her went for a ride sir and ten innocent people died

From the town of lincoln, nebraska with a sawed off .410 on my lap
Through to the badlands of wyoming I killed everything in my path

I cant say that Im sorry for the things that we done
At least for a little while sir me and her we had some fun

The jury brought in a guilty verdict and the judge he sentenced me to death
Midnight in a prison storeroom with leather straps across
my chest

Sheriff when the man pulls that switch sir and snaps mypoor
head back
You make sure my pretty baby is sittin right there on my lap

They declared me unfit to live said into that great void my sould be hurled
They wanted to know why I did what I did
Well sir I guess theres just a meanness in this world
