I went down to the Mary Carter paint store

I said give me one of them Smith and Wesson magnum forty fours

F G C D
This man killed my wife and my only little son
D C G
I'll never forget the way he looked all through the trial

He had his big named lawyer and he had that smirkey smile
D C G
Oh yeah he got you off on a technicality
F G C D
But you'll have to grow wings and fly to ever get away from me
Chorus
G D
Cause I got rights I got rights too
C G F D
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
C G F
You gotta right to know that you're gonna go to hell one of these black

Hey I got rights I got some rights too...
