I ain't nothing but a simple man
Call me a redneck, I reckon that I am,
But theres things going on, to a man down to the core
I have to work like a dog to make ends meet
Theres crooked politicians and crime in the street
And I'm madder than hell, And I aint gonna take it no more
We tell our kids to just say no.
Then our panny waist judge lets a drug dealer go
Slaps him on the wrist and turns him back out on the town
Well if i had my way with people selling dope
I'd take a big tall tree and a short piece of rope
I'd hang em up high and let em swing till the sun goes down
Well you know whats wrong with the world today
People done gone put there bibles away
Their living by the law of the jungle
Not the law of the land
Well the good book says it, so I know its the truth
An eye for and eye and a tooth for a tooth
You better watch where your going
Remember where you been
Thats the way I see it I'm a simple man
Now I'm the kinda man who wouldn't harm a mouse
But if i catch somebody breaking in my house
I gotta 12-gauge shotgun waiting on the other side
So don't go pushing me against my will
I don't wanna have to fight you but i darn sure will
If you dont want trouble then you better just pass me on by
As far as I'm concerned there aint no excuse
For the raping and the killing and the child abuse
I gotta way to put an end to all that bad
You just take them rascals out in the swamp
Put them on their knees and tie them to the stump
Let the rabbits and the bugs and the alligators do the rest
Well you know whats wrong with the world today
People done gone put there bibles away
Their living by the law of the jungle
Not the law of the land
Well the good book says it, so I know its the truth
An eye for and eye and a tooth for a tooth
You better watch where your going
Remember where you been
Thats the way I see it I'm a simple man
Watch where your going remember where you been
Thats the way i see it i'm a simple man
