The Women On Murderer’s Row
The women on murderers row have their story to tell,
some will tell you they are guilty as well as innocent.
Some feel the deceased partners got what they deserved,
others say that are only here by unfortunate circumstances.

Peggy Anderson is here for killing her husband late last year,
she will also tell you that she is guilty as charged of the crime.
The lying cheating sap sucker wasn’t worth my time she states,
but i made darn sure that he didn’t leave me for his new lady.

Desiree said that she didn’t mean to kill her only living sister,
but it was a shock when she found her in bed with her husband.
Desiree states the bullet was meant to kill her wayward husband,
bit it only wounded him and killed her backstabbing sister instead.

Donna polishes her nails and proclaims herself innocent of any crime,
it wasn’t me that set the fire and killed my boyfriend and his new lover.
But a neighbor identified me out of a line up as being near the house,
that doesn’t mean that i was responsible for the fire or the two deaths.

Chang Howe says that her husbands business partner is the one guilty,
putting an end to her beloved husband that she loved above everything.
But the gold ornate chop sticks Chang wore was in her husbands back,
does that mean that Chang’s husband had a female as a business partner?

Paige looks up from the story she had been working on and give a sad smile,
she says she is here because she murdered her once long time lover William.
He made me alot of promises that the black hearted snake didn’t try to keep,
so if i couldn’t have him neither could his young wife he recently married either.

Tammy Barker says the time she has to serve here is more out of compassion,
I just couldn’t let my beloved Tommy suffer the pain that he was going through.
Cancer had taken away from me the only man I ever loved and really cherished,
So I helped my Tommy die and will join him when my time on earth is finally done.

Tonya and Terry Barker say that their mates simply had to leave but they just helped,
the twins got weary of the multiple brutal beatings endured by the now dead husbands.
The two husbands swore that either twin was a very good cook and tried to poison them,
lucky for Tonya and Terry that the choice of poison they used blended in with the food.

The women on murderers row have a story to tell if you only just stop and listen to them,
some will tell you that they are innocent while others say they are as guilty as charged.
Some feel that the deceased partners got exactly what they deserved for their actions,
but others still feel they are still innocent and only here by unfortunate circumstances
