I'm sittin' here in this prison
Tryin' to figure why I am here
They say cause I killed my ol' lady
I've got nothin' to say
That they want to hear
If they had known my ol' lady
They'd a probably done the same
She was a floozy I just couldn't trust home alone
Now it's me who's gettin' the blame
Sorry I had to kill'er
I had to stop her from runnin' around
Sorry I had to kill'er
Twas the only way to settle her down
Sometimes I kinda miss'er
When looking around at four walls in this cell
But I told'er if she didn't change all'er ways
She would wind up a dead Jezebel
Sorry I had to kill'er
I had to stop her from runnin' around
Sorry I had to kill'er
Twas the only way to settle her down
