Lyrics

Hell in July
verse 1
Hell’s done froze over in July
The law man is making a claim I can’t deny
I was seeing red and shot a man dead
Chorus
Oh, I can’t remember why I pulled the trigger
The whiskey made me lose my faith
It was the lightning in a bottle
45 on the throttle
That put a man dead in his grave
And when the judge asked me, how do I plea?
I said, Lord convict the whiskey, not me
Verse2
Now I’m serving 25 to life
For killing a man that put his hands on his wife
I was seeing red
And shot his ass dead
Chorus
Oh, I can’t remember why I pulled the trigger
The whiskey made me lose my faith
It was the lightning in a bottle
45 on the throttle
That put a man dead in his grave
And when the judge asked me, how do I plea?
I said, Lord convict the whiskey, not me
Bridge
I tried to fight the law, but can’t beat it
Hell‘s done froze over in July
Chorus
Oh, I can’t remember why I pulled the trigger
The whiskey made me lose my faith
It was the lightning in a bottle
45 on the throttle
That put a man dead in his grave
And when the judge asked me, how do I plea?
I said, Lord convict the whiskey, not me
