Lincoln, Nebraska

I saw her standin' on her front lawn
Just a-twirlin' her baton
Me and her went for a ride, sir
Ten innocent people died
 
I can't say that I am sorry
For the things that I have done
Maybe for a little while, sir
Me and her we had some fun
 
From the town of Lincoln, Nebraska
With a shotgun on my lap
Through to the badlands of Wyoming
I killed everything in my path
 
Now the jury brought down a guilty verdict
And the judge he sentenced me to death
Midnight in a prison storeroom
Leather straps across my chest
 
I can't say that I am sorry
For the things that I have done
Maybe for a little while, sir
Me and her we had some fun
 
They declared me unfit to live
Into that great void my soul'd be hurled
You want to know why I did what I did
Sir I guess there's just a meanness in this world
