Judy, I feel weary now, older than a man of 33
The gates of Hell just opened, after 20 years the warden says I'm free
Revenge was all I wanted
When I killed the man that took your life that day
I've had my satisfaction, but the price was more than love should have to pay
Lord knows you weren't no lady, and the witnesses
All swore you was to blame
And the way you teased the menfolk,
The jury all agreed you knew no shame, knew no shame.
Second verse:
Well I'm glad that you can't see me now
You'd probably say I do not look my best
Those lawyers took my money, and that Louisiana road gang took the rest
And Judy I can't even conjure up your picture in my mind today
Lately I've been thinkin' what a fool I was to love you anyway
Last verse:
Well it all seems kind of useless
As I place these flowers on your grave today
I don't know what I'm doing here,
I've forgotten all the things I came to say
