[Verse 1]
I killed a man last night, gave him what he deserved
Dug a midnight grave, and I put him in that dirt
I woke up this mornin', my conscience fully clear
Felt closer to Jesus than I ever had in years
[Chorus]
He can't hurt the ones I love, he can't break no angel's heart
He can't take that whiskey bottle and tear my world apart
He can't stand there in the mirror, he can't tell me no more lies
Yeah, I killed a man, I killed a man last night
[Verse 2]
Lord knows hе had it comin', his sins were addin' up
But when hе drove that girl away, I finally had enough
I could've pled the fifth, but I poured it down the drain
Said that sinner's prayer and I sent him on his way
[Chorus]
Now, he can't hurt the ones I love, he can't break no angel's heart
He can't take that whiskey bottle and tear my world apart
He can't stand there in the mirror, he can't tell me no more lies
Yeah, I killed a man, I killed a man last night
[Bridge]
Wish it didn't take this long
But now he's finally gone
I killed a man last night, gave him what he deserved
Dug a midnight grave, and I put him in that dirt
I woke up this mornin', my conscience fully clear
Felt closer to Jesus than I ever had in years
[Chorus]
He can't hurt the ones I love, he can't break no angel's heart
He can't take that whiskey bottle and tear my world apart
He can't stand there in the mirror, he can't tell me no more lies
Yeah, I killed a man, I killed a man last night
[Verse 2]
Lord knows hе had it comin', his sins were addin' up
But when hе drove that girl away, I finally had enough
I could've pled the fifth, but I poured it down the drain
Said that sinner's prayer and I sent him on his way
[Chorus]
Now, he can't hurt the ones I love, he can't break no angel's heart
He can't take that whiskey bottle and tear my world apart
He can't stand there in the mirror, he can't tell me no more lies
Yeah, I killed a man, I killed a man last night
[Bridge]
Wish it didn't take this long
But now he's finally gone
