Early one mornin' while makin' the rounds |
| [00:09.21] |
I took a shot of ******* and I shot my woman down |
| [00:13.80] |
I went right home and I went to bed |
| [00:18.21] |
Stuck that lovin' forty-four beneath my head |
| [00:22.92] |
Got up next mornin' and I grabbed that gun |
| [00:27.00] |
Took a shot of ******* and away I run |
| [00:31.44] |
Made a good run but I run too slow |
| [00:35.61] |
They overtook me down in Juarez Mexico |
| [00:44.40] |
Played in the hot joints, takin' the pills |
| [00:48.78] |
In walked a sheriff from Jericho Hill |
| [00:52.95] |
He said Willy Lee your name is not Jack Brown |
| [00:57.06] |
You're the dirty hack that shot your woman down |
| [01:01.77] |
I said yes sir my name is Willie Lee |
| [01:05.40] |
If you've got a warrant just read it to me |
| [01:09.81] |
Well I shot her down cause she made me slow |
| [01:14.64] |
I thought I was her daddy but she had five more |
| [01:23.25] |
When I was arrested I was dressed in black |
| [01:27.15] |
They put me on a train and they took me back |
| [01:31.62] |
I had no friends for to go my bail |
| [01:35.94] |
Slapped my dried up carcass in the county jail |
| [01:40.83] |
Early next morning about a half past nine |
| [01:44.82] |
I spied a sheriff comin' down the line |
| [01:49.17] |
Coughed and he coughed as he cleared his throat |
| [01:52.68] |
He said come on you dirty hack into that district court |
| [02:02.07] |
Into the court room my trial began |
| [02:06.48] |
I was handled by twelve honest men |
| [02:10.71] |
Before the jury started out |
| [02:14.52] |
I saw that little judge commence to look about |
| [02:19.38] |
In about five minutes in walked a man |
| [02:23.64] |
Holding the verdict in his right hand |
| [02:27.57] |
The verdict said in the first degree |
| [02:31.74] |
I shouted "lordy lordy" have mercy on me |
| [02:36.51] |
The judge he smiled as he picked up his pen |
| [02:40.59] |
Ninety nine years in the Folsom pen |
| [02:45.03] |
Ninety nine years underneath that ground |
| [02:49.11] |
Can't forget that day I shot that woman down |
| [02:53.70] |
Come on you hacks now listen to me |
| [02:57.48] |
You gotta lay off that whiskey and let that ******* be |
