Lethal Injection

[Verse 1]
I don't want nobody to see me die
I don't wanna see my mother shake and cry
I don't want nobody watching over me
Except for the governor if he sets me free
Nothing seems worse than the firing line
But a lethal injection to the nerve of my spine

[Verse 2]
Sometimes I feel so sick inside
Sometimes I sit inside my cell and cry
I knew it was wrong when I killed that man
With a smoking revolver set in my right hand
But you know he had it coming when I took his life
He was down at the Motel 6, so was my wife
What the fuck was I supposed to do?

[Verse 3]
In came the preacher, I said "Save my soul"
And he said "I can't do that, son, but I know who will
The stories your mama told, you know they're true
About the man who died because of folks like you"
And this is what he said
"You wanna save your soul? You wanna be set free?
I believe there's a man who came from Galilee"
Said "You wanna save your soul? You wanna be set free?
Then put your hand on the man who came from Galilee"

[Verse 4]
I said "Preacher, that sounds awful swell
Ah, but there's one thing that's sure as shit
Lord, I'm going to Hell"
