Rest In Peace

Jay Michael Adams, 35 Kentucky-born and he's survived By his wife and his three boys Good Lord Plain wooden casket Peace lilies in a wicker basket Dry eyes, it's no surprise He was livin' on borrowed time Who did it? Who done did it? Somebody took one for the team Who did it? Who done did it? Never gonna find out it was me She called me up at a quarter past three "Big Sister, he hit me" Enough is enough, said, "Give me 15" 'Cause blood's thicker than whiskey I waited long enough, 'til he was blackout drunk Cinder block on the pedal, threw him in his truck Ashes to ashes and dust to dust Who did it? Who done did it? Never gonna find out it was me Who did it? Who done did it? I'll take it to the grave, baby, rest in peace His momma's still cryin' And the preacher keeps on lyin' No, he was not a man of God 'Cause he'd been caught too many times He was a thief and a cheater A natural-born deceiver But the moment that he beat her His ass was mine She called me up at a quarter past three "Big Sister, he hit me" Enough is enough, said, "Give me 15" 'Cause blood's thicker than whiskey I waited long enough, 'til he was blackout drunk Cinder block on the pedal, threw him in his truck Ashes to ashes and dust to dust Who did it? Who done did it? Never gonna find out it was me Who did it? Who done did it? I'll take it to the grave, baby, rest in peace I don't claim to be a saint But, no, it didn't feel like a sin It felt like he got what was comin' to him She called me up at a quarter past three "Big Sister, he hit me" Enough is enough, said, "Give me 15" 'Cause blood's thicker than whiskey I waited long enough, 'til he was blackout drunk Cinder block on the pedal, threw him in his truck Ashes to ashes and dust to dust Who did it? Who done did it? Never gonna find out it was me Who did it? Who done did it? I'll take it to the grave, baby, rest in peace
