Though these claims, I repudiate
I've got to set it straight that I was not the one
Who undercover of darkness came
Opened her window frame
And caused the damage that was done
O' Judge I'm at your command
It seem you've forced my hand
To give up my own brother
We came in south just behind the barn
Rode through McKenzie Farm
To that house of glowing light
The safe it promised nearly 40 grand
But James had other plans
And I lost him in the night
Just so you know, well we have a code
We take money, but never any life
O' the screams
They penetrate my dreams
Like the knife found at the scene
Jolene, she was only seventeen
When the caller came crawling through her screen
O' Judge hear my plea! Please take me!
For it was I who did not raise him right
Oh for in my sleep, when I dream
It's of penitentiary
And the lightning that he will ride
