JUDY, I FEEL WEARY NOW, OLDER THAN A MAN OF 33

THE GATES OF HELL JUST OPENED

AFTER TWENTY YEARS THE WARDEN SAYS I'M FREE

REVENGE WAS ALL I EVER WANTED

WHEN I KILLED THE MAN THAT TOOK YOUR LIFE THAT DAY

I'VE HAD MY SATISFACTION,

BUT THE PRICE WAS MORE THAN LOVE SHOULD HAVE TO PAY



LORDS KNOWS YOU WEREN'T NO LADY AND THE WITNESSES

ALL SWORE YOU WAS TO BLAME

AND THE WAY YOU TEASED THE MEN FOLK

THE JURY ALL AGREED YOU KNEW NO SHAME, KNEW NO SHAME



WELL I'M GLAD THAT YOU CAN'T SEE ME NOW

YOU'D PROBABLY SAY, THAT I DO NOT LOOK MY BEST

THOSE LAWYERS TOOK MY MONEY,

AND THAT LOUISIANA ROAD GANG TOOK THE REST



AND JUDY I CAN'T EVEN CONJURE UP

YOUR PICTURE IN MY MIND TODAY

LATELY I'VE BEEN THINKING' WHAT A FOOL

I WAS TO LOVE YOU ANYWAY



WELL IT ALL SEEMS KINDA USELESS

AS I PLACE THESE FLOWERS ON YOUR GRAVE TODAY

I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M DOING' HERE

I'VE FORGOTTEN ALL THE THINGS I CAME TO SAY
