What would you do if you caught your man cheating?
I was driving home from work on a stormy night,
calling to tell my husband I would be coming home late.
I heard a woman's laughter in the background,
and I knew I had to make them pay.

When I arrived home, I got the gun out of the hall closet.
Running upstairs and hearing them laughing,
I opened my bedroom door and found them in bed.
I fired the gun and shot them both.

When I ran out of bullets, I turned the lights on.
Blood was all over the room.
Two bloody bodies were lying across the bed.
This was what happened on that wicked night.



Note: I was inspired by Garth Brook's video The Thunder Rolls.
