i woke up this morning in ditch again, i swear that womans the devils kin

i went back home to grab my stuff, what i came to find was proof enough
           
i seen her lying with the boy next door. i always knew she was a two bit w***e
but i still loved her,,,

i grabbed my duffell and some stuff from the back. and i went outside to the old [bad word] shack
grabbed my rifle and some gasoline, i never thought i''''d get that mean
if she''''d only listened to what i said. there''''d be noone missing. and noone dead
and i mean it

my heart is pounding my fists are tight, full moon shining on the dead of the night
tried to remember something jesus said. the words of the devil rang through instead
he said burn that woman dig a hole for the clown my head is spinning like a merry go round i cant stop it.

i did just as the devil said. i done it all without regret 
i knew i should be feeling bad. i tell you flat out she made me mad
i still got her name tattooed across my calf. i think about her while looking back
and think...i miss her

now i listen to the words. that the good lord says. at church on sundays with my new girlfriend
she dont know about my past. i dont tell  she dont ask
somehow [bad word] to understand that the good lord has a master plan....and i believe it

my heart is pounding my fists are tight, full moon shining on the dead of the night
tried to remember something jesus said. the words of the devil rang through instead
he said burn that woman dig a hole for the clown my head is spinning like a merry go round i cant stop it.

well that''''s how it went down. on that cold october night
ya know you cant always judge a person on how they look on the outside
everybodies got a story                          that can make you weep
