lyrics

I will stare down my accuser
and state my acts were justified
I will stare down my accuser
and state the axe was justified
there is plenty enough good reason
that bad man should've died

I was stuck, and I knew that I was
I was down on Roxbury Avenue, taking cheap dirty drugs
well he said he got my girl
locked up in a motel room
and if I didn't pay up
it would be me too soon

Judge I know you got your motives
ya got your witnesses
but the only thing that ain't guilty is my conscious

Well, I took all that I could take
and now his body's at the bottom
of old Hick's Lake!

[RAWK]

Well, I tied him up real tight
so he hardly breathe
I heard him whisperin' this
as I was fixin' to leave
it's all your fault
you're the one to blame

Said, "Is it really my fault,
if I'm losin' at a losing game?"

Well, I took all that i could take
and now his body's at the bottom
of old Hick's Lake
