Hell's Coming With Him

You thought his woman weren’t half-bad, cared not that he was a good dad, stole his wife, made his children sad, now hell’s coming with him. You thought he didn’t need that land, and looked at it with visions grand, had no fear of the farmer man, yet hell’s coming with him. You won’t work to bring money in, much easier to take and grin, you rob the man and think, “I win,” but hell’s coming with him. You believed you were big and tough, found his sister, and roughed her up, he won’t stand for that kind of ‘love,’ so hell’s coming with him. You think you can just take and take his rights away, and he won’t break, but power’s not immune from hate, real hell’s coming with him. So now you’ve dragged him from his home, his rage worse than you’ve even known, wise men leave quiet ones alone, ’cause hell’s coming with him. Hell’s coming with him.
