I've Got Rights Lyrics - Hank Williams Jr.

I went down 

To the Mary Carter paint store 

I said give me one of them 

Smith and Wesson, Magnum 44s 

'Cause there's a man that the law let loose 

And justice was not done 

This man, he killed my wife 

And my only little son 

I'll never forget the way 

He looked all through the trial 

He had a big named lawyer 

And he had that smirky smile 

Oh yeah, he got you off 

On a technicality 

But you'll have to grow wings and fly 

To ever get away from me

'Cause I got rights 

I got rights too 

And this time there won't be no damn lawyer 

And system to protect you 

But I'm gonna read you 

I'm gonna read you your rights 

You gotta right to know that you're gonna go 

To hell one of these black nights 

And when the trial was over 

He had the nerve to say, that's the way it goes 

I said, "Well, hoss you better get you some corks 

'Cause you're gonna have to plug up a few holes" 

Guess he thought I was talking 

Just to pass away time 

But it kinda looks different now 

On his knees begging for his life

Hey, I got rights 

I got some rights too 

And this time there won't no damn lawyers 

And systems to protect you 

But I'm gonna read you 

I'm gonna read you your rights 

Because I want you to know that you're gonna go 

To hell one of these black nights 

Now, this time need no damn lawyers 

And systems to save you
