Hot Lead Sucker Punch

Well I’ve been killin just for fun
I’ve seen so many crying eyes at the end of a loaded gun
And like a dog that loves to bite 
They’ve come to put me down
But I’m going to shoot out 
before they put me in the ground

I am an evil man 
I said I am an evil man 
When I see blood I lick my lips
When I stab I give the knife a twist
And when I creep up on a man 
I give him a hot lead sucker punch

Well I’ve been killing just for fun
I have seen so many bloody men at the end of a smoking gun
And like a monkey from a branch
They come to hang me on a tree
But I’d rather shoot it out 
then let them put a rope around me

This all started when I was young
This all started when I was young 
Nobody loved me nobody cared 
Daddy beat me mom just stared    
Started fights and started fires  
Killed cats and killed dogs
If i said i felt any shame I would be a liar 

Well I I’ve been killin just for fun   
Now I’m staring down a hundred guns 
The gallows pole it calls my name
But I would rather shoot it out 
Then let them watch me hang
