Shay would punch me on the arm whenever
he spotted a Volkswagen Beetle
That was the rule of the punch buggy game
And I’d punch Shay back really hard because
Umi always said, Somebody hit you, you hit ’em back
That was the rule of that game
So I turned down the plea deal
and pleaded not guilty
Because Clyde said it was self-defense
Jeremy Mathis’s mother must’ve
told him the same thing
Somebody hit you, you hit ’em back
Because I threw the first punch
