"The Night The Lights Went Out In Georiga" by Reba McEntire is so confusing!! Well at least to me. Anyone know what the whole story in it is?

It is about a man referred to as "brother", who meets his best friend Andy in a bar called Webs for a drink after a two-week trip. Andy reveals that brother's wife has been cheating on him with another man "that Amos boy Seth". Andy also reveals that he has "been with her himself." Later that evening, brother gets his gun and goes to Andy's house to kill him, but finds that someone has already killed Andy. The police arrive after the man shoots his gun to catch their attention, and he is arrested at the scene, is tried, wrongly convicted, and hanged. The singer then reveals that it is she, in fact, who had killed Andy, as well as 'brothers cheating wife.

I didn't know Reba sang it.
Vicki Lawrence made it a hit in the 70's I think.

The singer's brother came home and was told his wife was seeing other men, sleeping with his best friend, too (Andy). He went home, found out she was out, and went to Andy's, carrying a gun. Found footprints on the way and then saw Andy dead on the floor. Used the gun to signal the passing cop, who arrested him for killing Andy. The judge found him guilty and they hung him. If they had properly investigated, they would have found out it was the singer who had killed Andy and the cheating wife.
