Lyrics
I caught a stranger in my house
And I busted his head with a club
I caught a stranger in my house
I busted his head with a club
I lay my coat with his heels in a tub
I seen the sheriff coming
And I jumped for the door
I seen the sheriff coming
Then I jumped for the door
But I jumped too late
The sheriff had done jumped before
They buried a man Thursday
Just two short days, you see
They buried a man Thursday
Just two short days, you see
And it makes me wonder
What they gonna do to me
I killed a man
And that's the how and how
I killed a man
And that's the how and how
I'm sitting here wondering
If a woman worth it now
Mmm, rope is stretching all day long
Mmm, rope stretching all day long
In just a few more days
I'm going to be able to sing my song
