| Lyric | Song |

| Put a gun against his head / pulled my trigger now he's dead | |
| She had to take him down easy / And put a bullet in his brain | |
| 'Accidents will happen' they all heard Ricky say / He fired his six-shot to the wind / that child blew a child away | |
| But I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die | |
| I had to put her / six feet under / And I can still hear her complain | |
| And people started to scream / Big man lying on the ground / With a hole in his body / Where his life had been | |
| In walked Captain Farrell / I jumped up, fired off my pistols / And I shot him with both barrels | |
Some dude was drunk and drove his car over a bridge /
and had his girlfriend in the trunk, and she was pregnant with his kid | |
Raised my rifle to my eye / Never stopped to wonder why /
Then I saw black, and my face splashed in the sky | |
| I got something to say / I killed your baby today / And it doesn’t matter much to me / As long as it’s dead | |
| He walked on down the hall / He went into the room where his sister lived, and then he… / Paid a visit to his brother, and then he… | |
| She stood there laughing / I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more | |
| Yes I did, I shot her / You know, I caught her messin' round, messin' round town | |
| A fall down the stairs / Her dress torn / Oh the blood in her hair… / A mystery so sullen in air | |
| See my sister got raped, so a man got killed / Local boy went to prison, man's buried on the hill | |
| You're feelin' weak? Why don't you lay down and sleep Earl / Ain't it dark wrapped up in that tarp Earl? | |
| You're a notch / And I'm a legend / You're at peace / And I must hide | |
| If you can slip a tablet into someone's coffee / Then it avoids an awful lot of mess | |
| I count the corpses on my left, I find I'm not so tidy / So I better get away, better make it today | |
| All of a sudden I saw sheriff John Brown, Aiming to shoot me down / So I shot - I shot - I shot him down | |
| On the sidewalk, one Sunday mornin / Lies a body oozin' life / Someone's sneakin' round that corner | |
| And the last thing I heard was a muttered word / As he stood smiling above me with a rock in his fist | |
