'Idle Hands'
Nothing ever happens here,
That's the way it's always been
Sometimes all your troubles are your only friends
It started when they caught for taking that car
Made it all the way to the interstate,
but I didn't get far
It was a '54 Mercury with white walls and skirts
Idle hands do the devil's work
A stranger from Lincoln came down one day
He charmed everyone in town
and he took my girl away
I used to write her letters, when I was locked up
Said I would kill for her
and then I signed them with love
I'm a twisted plowing through
and I'll leave you dying in the dirt
Idle hands do the devil's work
The darkness set in , it was the last night of '93
We headed up north, me and Tom and a .380
We drove to that farmhouse up on the countyline
Shot them all three dead and left her baby crying
I threw the gun in the river,
but there was blood on my shirt
Idle hands do the devil's work
Thirty years I've been here
and everyday's a waiting game
It won't be long now until they call my name
They'll give me three good shots
and I'll be numb before it hurts
Idle hands do the devil's work
Idle hands do the devil's work
