Villains Lament

Villain’s Lament, Richard Patrick, 2009

Momma, don’t worry today

Your boy will be alright

Sherrif is taken me away

My actions are my plight

PaPa don’t cry for me

Don’t let tears get in your sight

You raised me better don’t you see

You taught me to do everybody right

For my deeds I must pay

Ne’er again I’ll sleep at night

My trigger finger ran away

And took somebody’s life

Little darling don’t you weep

Tie no ribbons round a tree

Till they lay me six foot deep

Life in prison, never free
