Oh darlin’ Omie / What have they done / You begged for help
/ Yet received none / Oh, where has the justice gone these days
Gonna go and get myself a gun / Gonna get myself some hangin’ rope
They didn’t mean to rob you / They weren’t simple thieves / They weren’t hunting you at all / They were after me / Oh, the flowers of a sinful past in bloom
They came for the house / I asked for another month / The bank turned me away / So I made a deal with a crooked judge / Oh, A demon’s fee is always due
Must ‘a been some bank rolled cops / That shot my Omie dead / Cause when I found her / She was handcuffed and face down on the ground / Oh, honor don’t mean much these days
I track em to a barren field / Must be five or six / Rifles, pistols, badges glowing yellow in headlight lamps / Omie, I’d burn it all down to have you back in my arms
If they get me before I get them / Throw my corpse on the courthouse steps
