CHICKENS COMIN' HOME TO ROOST

My chickens coming home to roost
For what I've done (2x)
I knew this day would come
That's why I'm always on the run

(spoken) let me tell you what I did

I took my best friend's wife but he never knew (2x)
Now he's raising my two kids
He still don't have a clue
I turned a rich woman poor, make a good woman go bad (2x)
You know I love them and I leave them
Give them something they never had

I'd rather be judged by twelve than carried by six
To an open grave (2x)
I'm gonna do what I gotta do
Before my judgement day

My chickens coming home to roost
For what I've done (2x)
I've got blood on my hands
I knew this day would come
