lyrics

John Doe dumb son of a bitch
John Doe dumb son of a bitch
I hope the hands that lay you down look just like this
John Doe dumb son of a bitch

She was a good Christian woman
Just trying to spread the love of Christ
Some man from the church named John
Wanted to give her love, that wasn't Christian like
When she said no,
John Doe took her life

My friends and family say
"she's gone to be with the Lord"
My friends and family say
"she's gone to be with the Lord"
All I see is my sweet girl
Laying On The Cooling Board

John came to my house
trying to play things off
with a cocky little grin,
said I'm sorry for your loss
John Doe
I'll see you in hell

I gouged out his eyes, put em in a pot
Cut out his tongue, said "son now what you got"
I dragged him to the street
by the length of his hair
I left thirty-two teeth
on forty-seven stairs

John Doe dead son of a bitch
John Doe dead son of a bitch
Don't your worry John
At your funeral
I'll send your mother
a covered dish
John Doe dead son of a bitch
