D5 D5 G5 Well I'm doin' ten to twenty in the frozen granite state D5 A5 And every day I go to work to stamp our license plates D5 D5 G5 Everyday I go to work and every night I cry D5 A5 D5 D5 Cause every license plate I make tells me to live free or die G5 D5 Live free or die, oh lord tell me why A5 Can't they say seatbelts fastened or Oklahoma is OK G5 D5 Vacation land sounds mighty great, I wouldn't mind stampin out the garden state A5 D5 It's enough to make me cry, Live free or die Well I didn't mean to shoot that man, why the gun just went off in my hand I caught him with my wife and it cost that man his life I'd just got home from the factory and that man was sittin' where I'm supposed to be Now he's up there in the sky and I'm stuck with live free or die Chorus So let this be a lesson to all you married men out there That patience is a virtue so make your plans with care So if you catch your wife with another man, it's best to hold off as long as you can Then shoot him in another state where they go a different license plate Chorus
