Can someone post a link to it please?

I think this is what you asked for.

Yes. I just love this song!

Why doesn't Hank Williams, Jr do a "Lincoln" song about an innocent man being ordered to be executed by a five-to-four majority of the United States Supreme Court. I was there at the gates of San Quentin State Prison in California at 12:01 AM on the morning of July14, 1998 (Bastille Day) when Thomas Thompson, an innocent man, was executed and holding my sign in protest which read "UNCONSTITUTIONAL EXECUTION." The sign still stands in the corner of my dining room to this day.
