Good Man Now Lyrics

Mama you always told me
That the only good man was a dead man
And I guess it had something to do with
Who you chose to be your husband

So I go to him at night
And I nailed him to his bed
And I stood there and I laughed
While the sheets were drippin' red

And Mama you always told me
That the only good man was a dead man
So Mama please don't cry
He's a good man now

Blood on my mind
And anger in my eyes
I'm going to shoot the man I was brought up to despise

And though I kinda liked him
Mama told me that he was bad
And I keep Mama happy
Even if it makes me sad

I found him late last night
A whiskey bottle in his hand
And for the first time in my life
I saw the child and not the man

And I swear he kind of smiled
When he saw the gun in my hand
So Mama please don't cry
Daddy's now a good man

Mama please don't cry
Daddy's now a good man
