The preacher's due here
In an hour or so
To give me a reasons for
The things I know
I might have been careless and I
I might have been blind
If I'm the guilty, I'm satisfied
Oh woman, why did you
Do me wrong?
Sending me down and
I just can't get along
When daybreak comes and
I've reached the end of the line
I have a right to live
And I'm left to die
It all seems so hazy now
It seems so long ago
She hid the things she'd done
Or things I should know
What was I to do for
The hurting here inside
I kill for love but ????
I have a right to live
When I'm left to die
Oh, woman
I have a right to live...
