Lyrics Stone Cold Dead in the Market - Maya Angelou

Last night he went out drinking
When he came home he gave me a beating
So i picked up the rolling pin and went to work on his head
Til i bashed it in

And now he's stone cold dead in the market
Stone cold dead in the market
Stone cold dead in the market
When i killed nobody but me husband

His family they're looking for to kill me
His family they're looking for to kill me
His family they're promising to kill me
But if i kill him he had it coming
So

He is stone cold dead in the market
Stone cold dead in the market
Stone cold dead in the market
And I killed nobody but me husband

I beat 'im wit' thee pot and thee fryin' pan
Bashed 'im wit' thee pot and thee fryin' pan
Beat 'im wit' thee pot and thee fryin' pan
And if i kill him, i tried to
Man

He's stone cold dead in the market
Stone cold dead in the market
Stone cold dead in the market
When i killed nobody but me husband

There's one thing that i am sure
He ain't goin' to beat me no more
And i tell ya that i doesn't care
If i was to die in the electric chair
Because

He' stone cold dead in the market
Stone cold dead in the market
I tell you that he's stone cold dead in the market
And i killed nobody but me husband

He lie cold dead in the market tire
Cold dead in the market tire
Cold dead in the market tire
Stumbled dead in the market tire
Lying in the market tire
Cold dead in the market tire
