I'm going back to Arkansas
I gotta kill my ma and pa
I'm gonna kill ma and dad
Because they made my life so sad
I run so fast, all night and day
They haunt my soul in evil ways
I don't care what the law might do
I hope your folks are good to you
I stole my neighbor's pick-up truck
And took his daughter for good luck
I spent all my doe on a gun
Liquored up to have some fun
I drink all night and I feel real fine
As I'm roaring past that old state line
Driving up all night and day
Just to show him on his way
(Here it comes)
I'm bailing down the streets of town
I'd love to burn the fucker down
Down the road, along the way
I drove right past my brother, hey
I'm running up the lawn each night
And they can't see me, there's no light
Kick down the door then I say
'Brace yourself for judgment day
Going back to Arkansas
Burying my ma and pa
And then I'm going far away
But where I'm going, I won't say
'Cause I don't know, just where I'll run
I guess I follow the yellow sun
Or maybe north of Mexico
For I ain't saying where I'll go
I had to kill my mom and dad
Because they beat me up real bad
My daddy beat me everyday
And what I'd done, he wouldn't say
A leather strap across my back
And punched my eyes all blue and black
So I killed my ma and pa
I killed them both in Arkansas
Made the papers so damn mad
'Cause I killed my ma and dad
And now I'm running night and day
Where I'm going, I won't say
Just me and the girl and the stolen truck
