	E	D
	I ain't nothing but a simple man,	call me a redneck, I reckon that I

am.

	A	E
But there's	things goin' on that make me mad down to the	core. I

have to

	D
work like a dog to make ends meet. There's	crooked politicians and crime

in the

	A	E
street and I'm	madder than hell and I ain't gonna take it no	more.

We tell our

	D
kids to just say no and then some	panty waist judge lets a drug dealer go

	and	A
	he	slaps him on the wrist and he turns him back out on the town. Well,

if I

	E	D
	had my way with people sellin' dope, I take a	big tall tree and a

short piece of

	A	E
rope, and	hang 'em up high and let 'em swing thll the sun goes	down.

chorus.

	A	E
Well you	know whats wrong with the world today.	People done gone and

	D	A
put their Bibles away, There	livin' by law of the	jungle not the low

of the

	E	D	E
	land. Well the	good book says it, so I know it's the truth, An

eye for an

	D
eye and a tooth for a tooth. You'd better watch where you go and

remember

	A7	E
where you've been,	that's the way I see it I'm a simple	man.

Now, I'm the kind of man that wouldn't harm a mouse, but if I catch somebody

breakin' in my house, I've got a twelve gauge shotgun waitin' on the other

side. So don't go pushin' me against my will, I don't want to have to fight

you but I durn sure will. So if you don't want trouble that you'd better just

pass me on by. As far as I'm concerned there aint no excuse for the raping

and the killing and the child abuse. And I've got a way to put and end to

all that mess. You just take those rascals out in the swamp, put them on

their knees and tie 'em to a stump and let the rattlers and the bugs and the

alligators do the rest.
