They Accuse Me

I went to town late last night
Me and my boys started a fight
The townspeople didn't take to us too kind
Sheriff came and shut our party down
Went and tried to run us out of town
Man thinks he's god cause he has a badge
Found a dead girl by the river
Well she had to liver
That's how they could tell it wasn't suicide
And they accused me... And they accused me
And they accused me... And they accused me
Would you help a friend in need
Would you help me please
If they find me they'll hang me from the nearest tree
Pick me up don't let me down
Can't swim don't want to drown
If you let me stay I promise I won't make a sound
Well I'm going to get my gun
Decide to have a little fun
My name is going down in history
I'm walking down the city streets
Shooting everyone that I see
All the ones that accused me
