Thanks for all the suggestions. I ended up working up "Ellis Unit One" by Steve Earle, and am so glad I did. "I Shall Be Released" by Dylan, while not specifically about the death penalty, works in a general kind of way.

I need suggestions for a couple of songs to work up related to the death penalty. I figured this noble assemblage could come up with some good ones. What are the favorites?
