Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Yeah, I ain't nothin' but a simple man
They call me a redneck, I reckon that I am
But there's things goin' on that make me mad to the core
I gotta work like a dog to make ends meet
There's crooked politicians and crime in the streets
And I'm madder than hell and I ain't a-gonna take it no more
They tell our kids to just say no
Then some pantywaist judge lets a drug dealer go
Slaps him on his wrist and he turns him back out on the town
Well if I had my way with people sellin' dope
I'd take a big tall tree and a short piece of rope
I'd hang 'em up high and let em' swang 'til the sun goes down

[Chorus]
Well you know what's wrong with the world today
People done gone put their Bibles away
They're livin' by the law of the jungle not the law of the land
Well the good book says it so I know it's the truth
An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth
You better watch where you go, remember where you been
That's the way I see it, I'm a simple man

[Verse 2]
Hey, I'm the kinda man wouldn't harm a mouse
But if I catch somebody breakin' in my house
I've got a 12 gauge shotgun waitin' on the other side
So don't go pushin' me against my will
I don't wanna have to fight ya but I darn sure will
So if you don't want trouble then you better just pass me on by
As far as I'm concerned there ain't no excuse
For the rapin' and the killin' and the child abuse
And I got a way to put an end to all that mess
You just take them rascals out in the swamp
Put on their knees and tie 'em to a stump
Let the rattlers and the bugs and the alligators do the rest

[Chorus]
Well, you know what's wrong with the world today
People done gone put their Bibles away
They're livin' by the law of the jungle not the law of the land
Well, the good book says it so I know it's the truth
An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth
You better watch where you go, remember where you been
That's the way I see it, I'm a simple man

[Outro]
Watch where you go, remember where you been
That's the way I see it, I'm a simple man
