Ok, So it basically sounds like he is someone who was on parole, and messed it up because he killed some girl for a reason that he believes is justified (Think Johnny Cash and Cocaine Blues). "Imma need a damn lawyer and a miracle to pull my ass out of this" -Basically means that he was found out about what he did "Devil kept pokin' the bull So I shipped her ass to Mozambique 'Cause I was over it" (AND "Rat poison devil kept pokin' So I shipped her ass to Mozambique 'Cause I was over it") -She (whom he refers to as a devil), kept "pushing her luck with him" and he had enough, so he killed her (Was over it). "Shoulda dumped my gat into the Verde But what if she's a zombie or a dracula I better hang on to this" -I should have gotten rid of my gun (ditch the evidence) but this chick is so evil she could be a zombie or something, I may need it. "Lordy with my hand upon the Bible Swear I shot the damn devil, not a bitch But the po-po don't give a shit" -I would swear upon the Bible that I didn't murder someone, I killed something straight out of hell instead. But the police could care less about that. "Lordy won't you show a little mercy I've been on the straight and narrow since the judge and the warden done paroled me" -God, please show me mercy and let this all come to pass; I haven't done a single thing wrong ever since I was put on parole. "Goddamn judge found me guilty of public intoxication Public urination and parole violation But the CSI couldn't find the body to corroborate my bullshit story" -I was found guilty of being drunk in public, pissing in public, and violating my parole -Ok, so this line (CSI...BS story) could mean two things 1) that they could not find him a good enough lawyer to help him come up with a BS excuse to get him out of it. 2) They could not find the body of the girl he killed, so they had nothing to go on, all they could do is press him for the drinking, pissing, and parole violations. The second one would help explain the next section. "Sweet Jesus, don't let the judge release me What if she's a zombie or a dracula I tried to throw it in there Devil walked away from a plane and jumped to Mozambique" -Maybe I am better off in jail where she can't haunt me There is also a possibility that when he says he shipped her off to Mozambique he means it literally; as in sent her out of country to get her away from him. And that he is afraid of the possibility of her returning sometime. |
