A Good Man Songtext
von Semler

If there′s a good man in you, you killed him today
You took him out for a drink then you put him in his grave
You drove him outside of town far away from his house
So when the bullet rang out no one else heard a sound

If there's a good man in you, he′s dead in the dirt
But he'll be survived by the people you hurt
And they'll gather in masses, for him they will mourn
A prodigal son from the day you were born

Oh what have you become?
Oh you were your mother′s son
Oh this world is cruel, I know
Oh I wish it spared you

In with a cry and out with a gun


If there′s a good man in you, you killed him again
You poisoned the well of someone you called a friend
I think you'd rather they hate you but I don′t think they do
They're just sad you keep killing the good man in you

Oh what have you become?
Oh you were your mother′s son
Oh this world is cruel, I know
Oh I wish it spared you

In with a cry and out with a gun

God as my witness I hate to see you this way
And I believe in forgiveness but I don't know if people can change
You tell me
You tell me

Oh what have you become?
Oh you were your mother′s son
Oh this world is cruel, I know
Oh I wish it spared you

In with a cry and out with a gun
