Lyrics

He's stone cold dead in the market He's stone cold dead in the market He's stone cold dead in the market I killed nobody but my husband Last night I went out drinking When I came home I gave her a beating So she catch up the rolling pin and went to work on my head Until she bash it in I lie cold dead in the market Stone cold dead in the market I lie cold dead in the market She killed nobody but her husband I lick 'im wit' thee pot and thee fryin' pan I lick 'im wit' thee pot and thee fryin' pan I lick 'im wit' thee pot and thee fryin' pan And if I kill him, he had it coming Man, He's stone cold dead in the market He's stone cold dead in the market He's stone cold dead in the market I killed nobody but my husband My family they're swearin' to kill her My family they're swearin' to kill her His family they're swearin' to kill me And if I kill him, he had it coming Here I lie cold dead in the market Cold dead in the market I lie cold dead in the market She kill nobody but her husband There is one thing that I am sure He ain't goin' to beat me no more So I tell ya that I doesn't care If I was to die in the electric chair Man He's stone cold dead in the market He's stone cold dead in the market He's stone cold dead in the market I killed nobody but my husband Hey child, I'm coming back and bash your head one more time No, no no man you can't do that He's stone cold dead in the market (murderer) He's stone cold dead in the market (da criminal) He's stone cold dead in the market I killed nobody but my husband
