INTRO GGDG
We were married in the spring, she didn’t want for anything
A lovin’ husband, a little c
abin, clo
se to town
Workin’ hard out on the farm, comin’ in to all her charm
Until one day, when the
stranger c
ame around
It starts to rain can’t work no more, run to the porch open the door
To their surprise I
realize their littl
e game
So what was I supposed to do, oh I could tell he’d been with you
It made me mad and I just
couldn’t stand
the pain
Chorus:
I can’t
believe what I have done, I
killed them both with daddy’s gun
As their bodies lay
entangled in our
bed
He w
as the sheriffs only son, to m
e she was the only one
I smelled the perfume, the
powder and the
lead
Well my body starts to shake, begin to think about my fate
As I turn and start to
stagger toward the
door
I heard her take her final breath, I knew my sentence would be death
And so I threw that smokin’
gun onto the floor
Now I sit here in this jail, and now my life’s a livin hell
Since that awful dreadful
crime I had to
do
All her love she vowed to me, another man there’d never be
And in the end I’ll have to
die for loving yo
u
Chorus:
I can’t believe what I have done
