Hang 'em High Lyrics

They say the 10 will always hang
in their most biblical twang
then they'll cut you off on the road
flip you the finger in old testament mode

They'll sleep outside with the camera's on
lights go out back to their lawn
their smiling cars God loves them so
with a nice warm fire waiting down below

chorus:
so hang 'em high for all to see
the homeless in their misery
the poor, oppressed and beaten down
and you in your shirts of brown
(c'mon baby lets go downtown)

I never saw you move so fast
the commandments must be stuck up your ass
thou shall not be a hypocrite
never made the cut it just would not fit

chorus

It's your duty you say to hang 'em high
but you'll beat your woman 'till you're satisfied
and walk over me sleeping on the street
a master of religious deceit

chorus
