Description
A Good Man (Serial Killer) was inspired by the short story I read by Flannery O'Connor, A Good Man Is Hard To Find. I know-what am I writing about a serial killer-my parents are still asking that same question. HOWEVER! A lot of people who hear this song seem to really like it so they aren't holding it against me!
Lyrics
A Good Man (Serial Killer) Well I been traveling round the south since my daddy kicked the bucket last fall And they done locked me up and said it was my fault I don't remember what I did But I remember where I been And God save the man who'll cross my gun I don't know if Jesus raised the dead I don't know what's real or what's in my head All I know is a good man is hard to find And you keep talking for your life but you never even make a sound bet you'll keep talking even when they done buried you in the ground And you tell me that if I pray My soul will be saved But darlin your little white gloves ain't so pristine I don't know if God will save my soul I don't know if hell is down below All I know is a good man is hard to find And oh he's hard to find You think he's round the corner Then he vanishes from sight And yes I've paid the price Ain't no pleasure in life But we gotta get by I don't know if God will save my soul I don't know if hell is down below I don't know if Jesus raised the dead I don't know what's real or what's in my head But all I know is a good man is hard a good man is hard a good man is hard And she looked up to the sky She said, "Oh, you child of mine..." Then I shot her in the heart three times ©Justine Dorsey 2013 All Rights Reserved
