I GOT RIGHTS !

This song is so bad ass it made me change my way of thinking about country music . I was maybe 13 or so the 1st time i heard this . It made me feel like us real " red necks " do things just a little different than most ...




I went down to the Mary Cater Paint Store

I said, give me one of them Smith & Wesson Magnum .44s

Cause there's a man that the law let loose and justice was not done

This man he killed my wife and my only little son



I'll never forget the way he looked all through the trial

He had a big name lawyer and he had that smirky smile

Oh yeah, he got you off on a technicality

But you'd have to grow wings and fly to ever get away from me



Cause I got rights

I got rights too

And this time there won't be no damn lawyers and systems to protect you

But I'm gonna read you - I'm gonna read you your rights

You got the right to know that you're gonna go to hell one of these black nights



And when the trial was over he had the nerve to say that's the way it goes

I said, well hoss you better get you some corks cause your gonna have to plug up a few holes

I guess he thought I was talkin' just to pass away time

But he kinda looks different now on his knees beggin' for his life



Hey, I got rights

I got some rights too

And this time there won't be no damn lawyers and systems to protect you

But I'm gonna read you - I'm gonna read you your rights

Cause I want you to know that your gonna go to hell one of these black nights

oh come on... this ain't fair. it's a cool song but i thought this was one of byd's topics where i could tell him to man up and quit his bitching. and i was sooo looking forward to putting him down a bit after a hard night's work

That's a pretty cool song.... some country is pretty good. Well, the stuff like that that is borderline southern rock....

older country was bad ass, not gonna lie, but most of this new day stuff sucks major penis

New country sucks balls, I agree. I like old stuff, like Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, etc
