lawman took him away
before i could do it my way
i hope that they beat him up
i hope they do it good
i hear that they do that
in this neighbourhood
lawman put him away
for what i don't know
nor do they
they say he's a "reformed man"
you shouldn't have a go
they say that i'm an honest man
it shows you just don't know

well it's harder now
so much harder now
to try and give
and try and let it go
and i'm older now
so much older now
i can't forgive
i can't let go

lawman let him walk free
to where he has gone don't bother me
i hope that he's happy
in his small little world
i just want him beat up and buried in a hole
well it's harder now
so much harder now
to try and give
and try and let it go
and i'm older now
so much older now
i can't forgive
i can't let go

don't say you're sorry
don't say you're sorry
don't say you're sorry
it's wasted on me
it's wasted on me
it's wasted on me
