Lyrics
One night when I was out a man came knocking
He stole my daughter's innocence and kept right on walking
Policemen caught up with him later that night
They locked him up but that don't nearly make things right
I got a mind to learn that man a lesson
I got a mind to introduce him to Smith & Wesson
I know it's a sin but I don't care
I know it's a sin but I don't care
I know it's a sin but I don't care
I'll see him burn in hell
His lawyer looked the jury square in the eyes
And sold each one of them a pack of lies
My child can't sleep at night but he don't care a lick
What he'll do for money, man, it makes my sick
I got a mind to take care of everything
I got a mind to find a tree and make him swing
I know it's a sin but I don't care
I know it's a sin but I don't care
I know it's a sin but I don't care
I'll see him burn in hell
The judge returned and we all stood
He said that man had a rough childhood
I couldn't believe my ears then my wife started crying
I promised her I'd control myself and, Lord, I'm trying
I got a mind to make them pay for what they done
I got a mind to send them all to Kingdom Come
I know it's a sin but I don't care
I know it's a sin but I don't care
I know it's a sin but I don't care
I'll see them all burn in hell
