Lyrics
Chorus
Massa John you gonna get what's comin' to you
put my brother in the hole
lord have mercy rest his soul
if i don't died before i get old
gonna see this story gets told
you done raped my sister Nell
did not even go to jail
lord have mercy if the truth prevail
it's a story straight from hell
ain't no room at the pearly gates
for a soul so full of hate
when you finally meet your fate
the cry for help will be too late
