Revenge

(アルバム： Long Haired Redneck - 1976)

Judy, I feel weary now, older than a man of 33
The gates of Hell just opened, after 20 years the warden says I'm free
Revenge was all I wanted
When I killed the man that took your life that day
I've had my satisfaction, but the price was more
Than love should have to pay

[Chorus:]
Lord knows you weren't no lady
And the witnesses all swore you was to blame
And the way you teased the menfolk
The jury all agreed you knew no shame, knew no shame

Well I'm glad that you can't see me now
You'd probably say I do not look my best
Those lawyers took my money
And that Louisiana road gang took the rest

And Judy I can't even conjure up your picture in my mind today
Lately I've been thinking what a fool I was to love you anyway

Well it all seems kind of useless
As I place these flowers on your grave today
I don't know what I'm doing here
I've forgotten all the things I came to say
