I AIN'T NOTHIN'
BUT A SIMPLE MAN
THEY CALL ME
A REDNECK
I RECKON THAT I AM
BUT THERE'S THINGS
GOIN' ON
MAKE ME MAD
DOWN TO THE CORE
I HAVE TO WORK
LIKE A DOG
TO MAKE ENDS MEET
THERE'S CROOKED
POLITICIANS
AND CRIME
IN THE STREET
AND I'M MADDER
THAN HELL
AND I AIN'T 'A GONNA
TAKE IT NO MORE
WE TELL OUR KIDS
TO JUST SAY NO
AND THEN SOME
PANTY WAIST JUDGE
LETS A DRUG DEALER GO
SLAPS HIM ON THE WRIST
AND HE TURNS HIM BACK
OUT ON THE TOWN
WELL IF I HAD MY WAY
WITH PEOPLE
SELLIN' DOPE
I'D TAKE A BIG TALL TREE
AND A SHORT PIECE
OF ROPE
I'D HANG 'EM UP HIGH
AND LET 'EM SWING
'TIL THE SUN GOES DOWN
WELL YOU KNOW
WHAT'S WRONG
WITH THE WORLD TODAY
PEOPLE DONE GONE
PUT THEIR BIBLES AWAY
THEY ARE LIVIN' BY
THE LAW OF THE JUNGLE
NOT THE LAW
OF THE LAND
WELL THE GOOD BOOK
SAYS IT
SO I KNOW
IT'S THE TRUTH
AN EYE FOR AN EYE
AND A TOOTH
FOR A TOOTH
YOU'D BETTER WATCH
WHERE YOU GO
AND REMEMBER
WHERE YOU'VE BEEN
THAT'S THE WAY I SEE IT
I'M A SIMPLE MAN
NOW I'M THE KIND
OF MAN
WOULDN'T HARM
A MOUSE
BUT IF I CATCH
SOMEBODY
BREAKIN' IN MY HOUSE
I'VE GOT A TWELVE GAUGE
SHOTGUN
'A WAITIN'
ON THE OTHER SIDE
SO DON'T GO PUSHIN' ME
AGAINST MY WILL
I DON'T WANNA
HAVE TO FIGHT YOU
BUT I DURN SURE WILL
IF YOU DON'T
WANT TROUBLE
THAN YOU'D BETTER
JUST PASS ME ON BY
AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED
THERE AIN'T NO EXCUSE
FOR THE RAPING
AND THE KILLING
AND THE CHILD ABUSE
AND I GOT A WAY
TO PUT AN END
TO ALL THAT MESS
YOU JUST TAKE THEM
RASCALS
OUT IN THE SWAMP
PUT 'EM ON THEIR KNEES
AND TIE 'EM TO A STUMP
LET THE RATTLERS
AND THE BUGS
AND THE ALLIGATORS
DO THE REST
WELL YOU KNOW
WHAT'S WRONG
WITH THE WORLD TODAY
PEOPLE DONE GONE
PUT THEIR BIBLES AWAY
THEY ARE LIVIN'
BY THE LAW
OF THE JUNGLE
NOT THE LAW
OF THE LAND
WELL THE GOOD BOOK
SAYS IT
SO I KNOW
IT'S THE TRUTH
AN EYE FOR AN EYE
AND A TOOTH
FOR A TOOTH
YOU BETTER WATCH
WHERE YOU GO
AND REMEMBER
WHERE YOU'VE BEEN
THAT'S THE WAY I SEE IT
I'M A SIMPLE MAN
WATCH WHERE YOU GO
AND REMEMBER
WHERE YOU'VE BEEN
THAT'S THE WAY I SEE IT
I'M A SIMPLE MAN
