I killed nobody but me 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 
Till she bash it in 

I lie cold dead in de market 
Stone-cold dead in de market 
I lie cold dead in de market 
She killed nobody but her husband 

I lick him wit' thee pot and thee fryin' pan 
I lick him wit' thee pot and thee fryin' pan 
I lick him wit' thee pot and thee fryin' pan 
And if I kill him, he had it coming 

Man, he's stone-cold dead in de market 
He's stone-cold dead in de market 
He's stone-cold dead in de market 
I killed nobody but me husband 

My family they swearin' to kill her 
My family they swearin' to kill her 
His family they swearin' to kill me 
And if I kill him, he had it coming 

I lie cold dead in the market, child 
Cold dead in the market, child 
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 you that I doesn't care 
If I was to die in the electric chair 

Man, he's stone-cold dead in de market 
He's stone-cold dead in de market 
He's stone-cold dead in de market 
I killed nobody but me husband 

Hey, child, I'm coming back and bash you on your head one more time 

No, no, man, you can't do that 

You stone-cold dead in de market, murderer 
Stone-cold dead in de market, de criminal 
He's stone-cold dead in de market 
I killed nobody but me husband
