Killer On The Lamb

We were twins to be born that day But I could never let it be that way Mama's life line proved a good noose With a taste for killing, I was on the loose My folks hated me for what I did that day So I slit their throats, sent 'em to their grave I headed for the Smokie's in Tennessee Yeah, lot of good killing was ahead of me I'm a killer on the lamb Hey, I don't mind living with some blood on my hands Your life to me ain't worth a damn To this killer on the lamb Met a mountain girl from a mining town Our first time when the sun went down All she wanted was to marry me So I cut her where she loved me And watched her bleed Her daddy from the holler saw her blood so red So I drug him in the river and I drowned him dead I'm a killer on the lamb Hey, I don't mind living with some blood on my hands Your life to me ain't worth a damn To this killer on the lamb Wore out my welcome in Arkansas Killed a Christian family of the Pentecost Georgia Cracker was a talking at me So I cut out his tongue, hung from a tree Now the southern law wants to put me in jail But I'll still be killing when I'm burning in hell I'm a killer on the lamb Hey, I don't mind living with some blood on my hands Your life to me ain't worth a damn To this killer on the lamb To this killer on the lamb To this killer on the lamb
