Nebraska

I saw her stangin' on her front lawnJust twirlin' her batonMe and her went for a ride sirAnd ten innocent people diedFrom the town of Lincoln NebraskaAith a sawed-off .410 on my lapThrough to the badlands of WyomingI killed everything in my pathI can't say that I'm sorryFor the things that we doneAt least for a little while sirMe and her we had us some funThe jury brought in a guilty verdictAnd the judge he sentenced me to deathMidnight in prision storeroomWith leather straps across my chestSheriff when the man pullsThat switch sir and snaps my poor neck backYou make sure my pretty babyIs sittin' right there on my lapThey declared me unfit to liveSaid into that great void my soul'd be hurledThey wanted to know why I did what I didWell sir I guess there's just a meanness in this world
