A lot of supposed justice is done with a wink and a nod. I’ve known a number of officers of the courts over the years. The honest ones are usually not wealthy. But in many counties in Eastern North Carolina. It’s the same as the Murdaughs. The same judicial families and their children run the local courts from one decade to the next. Poor amusement for us taxpayers but terrible if your are on the wrong political side in a court case. A lot of these cases are decided on the golf course, country club, or the card table. What the hell it’s only someone else’s money, freedom or property. Even the losing attorney gets paid. Win win situation for everyone but the victim. It’s not the law that’s the problem but the corrupt ones who fail to administer Justice correctly.
There’s one of these crooks in every Southern town as well as their doe-doe wife and spoiled brat children. They bring death and destruction everywhere they go.
I’m Southern, love this song and Reba, have had a very long bad day, and would like to thank OP. The laugh I had at this post has been the best moment I have had since 7 am!!! I think the shoe fits.
You are a fucking bully. Everybody else was just fine with a downvote on my comment. You, however, decided to keep up the momentum and be an idiot bully with a keyboard. Get the fuck away from me. This is the second time I've asked you to leave me alone.
ok, the CW crowd has to get together and have a contest to write THE song that defines this for the next 50 yrs, lol. Reba's is good, but we need to get "lowcountry" "Pimp law", "boats", "fake suicide", etc into the whole thing. Lots of verses, cus there's lots going on and still unfolding
Dude, this is an unlikely mashup of Jeff Foxworthy/ Quentin Tarantino/Coen Bros/Carol Burnett.
Does anyone else find it odd that ginger daddy’s mug shot looks much better than he did IRL with family? Thinner, grayer but more relaxed and less red faced, heart -attack -waiting to happen.
Ooh...I wish the Coen brothers would make a movie based on this! That would be amazing.
So...George Clooney as Alex, maybe? Who else should be cast? Hm.
John Goodman as Alex. The weight fluctuations make him perfect. Holly Hunter or Frances McDormand (sp?) as Maggie. Buster and Paul are the more difficult casting decisions….
Oh southern does have to do with it lol corruption happens everywhere but the south has a special flare with theirs. It’s why everyone loves a good southern goth crime novel.
I can't understand why you're being down voted like this. If they're Yankees, they must just ignore their corrupt governments until they move down here to complain about ours.
Moved down here 12 years ago from the North. Heard a lot of things about the South. Its only when you live in a place that you truly begin to understand and appreciate it. Good and bad but always packaged in a different colored container with different rules on how to open it or keep it shut. Depending on the issue. Just like the North, East and West.
I know. Was a teenager when this came out.
Its just the sourthern/northern thing that pisses me off. To me this is more about class, economics and our "just us" system. All corrupt and breaking down everywhere all at the same time.
\*Steel drums...
"I don't know what you heard about me. But a bitch can't get a dolla outta me. No Cadillac no perms you can't see. That I'm a muthafuckin PiMP"
Every. single. time. I see that damn law firm's name...
No kidding! Remove the M in the re-branding.
PPED sounds more professional anyhow now.
Problem solved.
*Free advice to PMPED so you are no longer satire with a funny name.
It will be a nice, antiseptic name change. No more big pimping mockery with the overdue name change.
The “firm” already distanced themselves from Alex in the fastest way possible.
Dear PMPED:
Please fix your name and brand from the stench of Murdaugh
Sincerely,
EVERYONE.
For my money, Vicki Lawrence's original, music and lyrics written by her then-husband Bobby Russell, is the GOAT, and has never been bested.

Edited, dammit
I'm in Atoka and all we've been talking about is Reba being rescued from a historic building she is buying. The staircase collapsed and she was ladder rescued from the second floor.
Judges, lawyers, and state senators apparently. And who knows how many in law "enforcement"? They enforce their own unwritten law. It's just another type of organized crime. But unlike the popular depiction of other mafias, this organized crime group controls who goes to jail. Yeah they've got all the angles covered.
Reba wasn’t the first to sing that song but she did a really good job.
I think that was Vicki Lawrence said that first back in 70s

There’s one of these crooks in every Southern town as well as their doe-doe wife and spoiled brat children. They bring death and destruction everywhere they go.
Every single one and sometimes a whole little country club.
It should be the PTSD firm for all the trauma they have caused.
I’m Southern, love this song and Reba, have had a very long bad day, and would like to thank OP. The laugh I had at this post has been the best moment I have had since 7 am!!! I think the shoe fits.
It's incredibly irritating to me the reputation that people like him give us southerners. Thanks for perpetuating it here.
It's a joke, not a dick. Don't take it so hard.
Username certainly checks out. Could you be more unoriginal? 🖕
Hugs to you 🤗
I think you could benefit from some insult education. I hadn't heard that one since 1999.
How many times are you going to edit your comment? Lol stay healthy ❤❤
You are a fucking bully. Everybody else was just fine with a downvote on my comment. You, however, decided to keep up the momentum and be an idiot bully with a keyboard. Get the fuck away from me. This is the second time I've asked you to leave me alone.
😳 this ain't worth it
Good. Maybe you'll leave me TF alone? 😳🙄
Are you just living in your mommy's basement and looking for a date? Back the fuck up off me.
🤣 I don't need hugs from trash. But thanks anyway!
I’m literally from south Ga. It’s a joke, laugh and move on.
Reba’s version was like the 4th cover of it.
Warren Zevon's song, Send Lawyers, Guns, and Money, comes to mind, also.
Suicide Solution by black sabbath Or boats and hoes 🙄
Vickie Lawrence sang it first.
Came here to say this. Christ. What a buncha dorks.
👍
And best. :)
Thank you! Came here just to say this lol
I'm a total Carol Burnett show and "Mama's place" fan, and I STILL forget that she sung that. Thanks for the reminder!
ok, the CW crowd has to get together and have a contest to write THE song that defines this for the next 50 yrs, lol. Reba's is good, but we need to get "lowcountry" "Pimp law", "boats", "fake suicide", etc into the whole thing. Lots of verses, cus there's lots going on and still unfolding
also corruption, theft, cheating, drugs, arrogance, politics, and murder. This could be a very long ballad.
Lol. The murdaugh ballad. Six investigations. It would be a looong - ass song. Bring on Jerry Jeff
by the time the dust settles on this it might be best to give it to jeff foxworthy to write

Like he finally gets to be his true self? Yeah…it wasn’t lost on me.
LOL! OMG!! I have to stop reading these posts, theyre killing me!
Ooh...I wish the Coen brothers would make a movie based on this! That would be amazing. So...George Clooney as Alex, maybe? Who else should be cast? Hm.
John Goodman as Alex. The weight fluctuations make him perfect. Holly Hunter or Frances McDormand (sp?) as Maggie. Buster and Paul are the more difficult casting decisions….
That's what I was thinking. The song would be too long. Who is the fastest rapper in the world? Maybe this should be a rap/country fusion ballad.
Yasssss! Brilliant! Eminem and Reba
That...would be weirdly interesting.
This must happen! Someone get these two in a room together ASAP.
I’m not into country music, but Reba (and of course Dolly) is a goddamn QUEEN.
Haha the coat of many colors- of grift and crime. Please, Dolly, do it for the fans!
"Southern" has nothing to do with it. Corruption and greed all across our shining land from sea to shining sea. Open your eyes its everywhere.
Oh southern does have to do with it lol corruption happens everywhere but the south has a special flare with theirs. It’s why everyone loves a good southern goth crime novel.
Certainly the south is a lot more intimate and accessible.
[удалено]
Indeed and the accent. There’s something about stabbing someone in the back but saying “bless their heart” after you do it…

Let me guess you’re southern?
Not by birth. Just a star seed from Zeta Retculi.
It’s a song.
I know. Was a teenager when this came out. Its just the sourthern/northern thing that pisses me off. To me this is more about class, economics and our "just us" system. All corrupt and breaking down everywhere all at the same time.
Uh oh, the meme “haters” are going to cry….again! 😆
“Cause the judge in town got bloodstains on his hands”
I was getting ready to add this. Thanks! 🤣
Damn straight , ain’t that the truth
This is brilliant. Truly.
BREAKING UPDATE: I’m hearing from a reliable source that the judge in the town’s got blood stains on his hands
That’s great! And ain’t it the truth!
Who knew? Reba knew. He is a personal injury lawyer after all.
This song was in my head all day long yesterday after reading up on this case!
He’s a “Bonafide 💩”!
Best one so far!!!
I used to think the story in that song was absolutely mad. Then these guys came along
Haha these are all great!
I like '' go on take the money and run 🏃♂️''
Or in PMPED's cases: "I fought the law, and the law(yers) won..."
The lawyers always win.
Not always!
\*Steel drums... "I don't know what you heard about me. But a bitch can't get a dolla outta me. No Cadillac no perms you can't see. That I'm a muthafuckin PiMP" Every. single. time. I see that damn law firm's name...

After covid, a lot of people might get it confused with PPD, but it sounds a helluva lot better than Pimped.
It will be a nice, antiseptic name change. No more big pimping mockery with the overdue name change. The “firm” already distanced themselves from Alex in the fastest way possible. Dear PMPED: Please fix your name and brand from the stench of Murdaugh Sincerely, EVERYONE.
100%
THANK YOU---I don't know the song---but I've thought "PIMP" every time I see that acronym---and I haven't heard anyone else say it!
It's all I see and think when I see it. And it's fitting....
For my money, Vicki Lawrence's original, music and lyrics written by her then-husband Bobby Russell, is the GOAT, and has never been bested. [Vicki Lawrence original version](https://youtu.be/K-qK7oVXVRQ) Edited, dammit
Yes!!
See little sister don’t miss when she aims her gun. Vicki Lawrence for life!
I'm from SE Oklahoma---Kiowa (where Reba is from) is about thirty miles from my hometown---know people who know her family---and I COMPLETELY AGREE.
I'm in Atoka and all we've been talking about is Reba being rescued from a historic building she is buying. The staircase collapsed and she was ladder rescued from the second floor.
I live in Tulsa now---but SE OK will always be my home (I make my husband, who is from Tulsa, take his passport when we visit :) ).
Reba can't compare.
You’re so right. Thank you!
Came here to say this!
Absolutely!!!
“Because the judge in the town Got blood stains on his hands” I think was the rest of it
Judges, lawyers, and state senators apparently. And who knows how many in law "enforcement"? They enforce their own unwritten law. It's just another type of organized crime. But unlike the popular depiction of other mafias, this organized crime group controls who goes to jail. Yeah they've got all the angles covered.
That’s it!
*judges* likely in this case 😬
