Cody Johnson - Guilty As Can Be

[Verse 1]
Once I had me a woman
Everything was goin' my way
She thought I had hung the moon
And she had an angel's face
Til' one night I pulled in my drive
And somethin' was goin' on
There was a long bed Ford in my spot
That I damn sure didn't own
I walked up to the screen door
And I heard this awful noise
I moved on to the living room and there sat my two boys
I said "Where's mama?"
And they both pointed to the bedroom down the hall
Now, I ain't ever been a fightin' man
But red was all I saw

[Chorus]
See brother 'cause I've been down and I've been out
And I know how it feels
To stand up for what you think is right
Then get knocked off your heels
And if murderin' a man who didn't understand
Just what she meant to me
Means I'll rot here in this cell for eternity
Well then mister I'm as guilty as can be

[Verse 2]
Well I wish I had me a picture of what his face looked like
When I kicked in my bedroom door and raised my 45
I said ain't the kind to hurt a woman and I hope you understand
But somebody's got to die today
Son, it looks like you're the man

[Chorus]
See brother 'cause I've been down and I've been out
And I know how it feels
To stand up for what you think is right
Then get knocked off your heels
And if murderin' a man who didn't understand
Just what she meant to me
Means I'll rot here in this cell for eternity
Well then mister I'm as guilty as can be

[Bridge]
That's what I told that jury
That's what I told that judge
And I knew there'd be hell to pay if I fulfilled my grudge
See I don't mind these prison bars tucked off in these pine trees
One thing about that cheatin' woman
She won't cheat again on me

[Chorus]
See brother 'cause I've been down and I've been out
And I know how it feels
To stand up for what you think is right
Then get knocked off your heels
And if murderin' a man who didn't understand
Just what she meant to me
Means I'll rot here in this cell for eternity
Well then mister I'm as guilty as can be
I said if murderin' a man who didn't understand
Just what she meant to me
Means I'll rot here in this cell for eternity
Well then mister I'm as guilty as can be
[Outro]
Go ahead and lock me up, boys
I'm guilty anyways
