I ain't nothin' but a simple man   They call me a redneck a reckon that I am   But there's things going on that make me mad down to the core      I have to work like a dog to make ends meet   There's crooked politicians and crime in the street   And I'm madder'n hell and I ain't gonna take it no more      We tell our kids to just say no   Then some panty waist judge lets a drug dealer go   Slaps him on the wrist and then he turns him back out on the town      Now if I had my way with people sellin' dope   I'd take a big tall tree and a short piece of rope   I'd hang 'em up high and let 'em swing 'til the sun goes down      Well, you know what's wrong with the world today   People done gone and put their bible's away   They're living by the law of the jungle not the law of the land   Well, the good book says it so I know it's the truth   An eye for and eye and a tooth for a tooth   You better watch where you go and remember where you been   That's the way I see it I'm a simple man      Now I'm the kinda man that'd not harm a mouse   But if I catch somebody breakin' in my house   I've got twelve gage shotgun waiting on the other side      So don't go pushing me against my will   I don't want to have to fight you but I dern sure will   So if you don't want trouble then you'd better just pass me on by      As far as I'm concerned there ain't no excuse   For the raping and the killing and the child abuse   And I've got a way to put an end to all that mess      You just take them rascals out in the swamp   Put 'em on their knees and tie 'em to a stump   Let the rattlers and the bugs and the alligators do the rest      Well, you know what's wrong with the world today   People done gone and put their bible's away   They're living by the law of the jungle not the law of the land   Well, the good book says it so I know it's the truth   An eye for and eye and a tooth for a tooth   You better watch where you go and remember where you been   That's the way I see it I'm a simple man      Watch where you go and remember where you been   That's the way I see it I'm a simple man
