The courthouse crowds
been getting out of hand
Cause Billy ' s on trial,
for killing a man
12 chosen men,
went to right his wrong
Hes gonna be dancing to the music
of the hang man's song
Somewhere inside,
where you laugh and cry
The hurts the same,
when love turns to pain
Mama brought him up,
just the best she could
She always said... oooh.
he was misunderstood
No body took the time,
to try and understand
That the kid wasn't born,
with a gun in his hand.
Somewhere inside,
where you laugh and cry
The hurts the same,
when love turns to pain
blood gone bad
all you see is red
has the world gone mad
The boy is blamed instead
Daddy held his boy
And Billy lost control
Burning up inside
Till his blood ran cold
The old man's eyes
He recognized his son
As Billy looked down the sight
Of the smoking gun
Somewhere inside,
where you laugh and cry
The hurts the same,
when love turns to pain
blood gone bad
all you see is red
has the world gone mad
The boy is blamed instead
When good bloods gone bad
Honesty is dead
has the world gone mad
The boy is blamed
blood gone bad
all you see is red
has the world gone mad
The boy is blamed instead
When good bloods gone bad
all you see is red
has the world gone mad
The boy is blamed blood gone bad
all you see is red
has the world gone mad
The boy is blamed instead
When good bloods gone bad
Honesty is dead
has the world gone mad
The boy is blamed
blood gone bad
all you see is red
has the world gone mad
The boy is blamed instead
When good bloods gone bad
Honesty is dead
has the world gone mad
The boy is blamed
