Nebraska Lyrics - Patty Griffin

I saw her standin? on her front lawn 

just twirlin? her baton 

Me and her went for a ride sir 

and ten innocent people died 

From the town of Lincoln, Nebraska 

with a sawed off .410 on my lap 

Through to the badlands of Wyoming 

I killed everything in my path 

I can抰 say that I抦 sorry 

for the things that we done 

At least for a little while sir 

me and her we had us some fun

The jury brought in a guilty verdict 

and the judge he sentenced me to death 

Midnight in a prison storeroom 

with leather straps across my chest 

Sheriff when the man pulls that switch sir 

and snaps my poor head back 

You make sure my pretty baby 

is sittin? right there on my lap 

They declared me unfit to live 

said into that great void my soul抎 be hurled 

They wanted to know why I did what I did 

Well sir I guess there抯 just a meanness in this world.
