Bruce Springsteen - Nebraska |
Bruce Springsteen I saw her stangin' on her front lawn Me and her went for a ride sir And ten innocent people died Just twirlin' her baton From the town of Lincoln Nebraska Through to the badlands of Wyoming Aith a sawed I killed everything in my path I can't say that I'm sorry At least for a little while sir The jury brought in a guilty verdict For the things that we done Me and her we had us some fun And the judge he sentenced me to death Midnight in prision storeroom With leather straps across my chest That switch sir and snaps my poor neck back Sheriff when the man pulls Is sittin' right there on my lap You make sure my pretty baby They wanted to know why I did what I did They declared me unfit to live Said into that great void my soul'd be hurled Well sir I guess there's just a meanness in this world |
