Early one mornin' while making the rounds
I took a shot of cocaine and 
I shot my woman down
Went right home and 
I went to bed
I stuck that lovin' .44 beneath my head
Got up next morning and 
I grabbed my gun
I took a shot of cocaine and away 
I runMade a good run but 
I run too slow
They overtook me down in 
Juarez Mexico
I laid in the hot joint, takin' the pill
In walked the 
Sheriff from 
Jericho Hill
He said, “
Willie Lee, your name is not 
Jack Brown
You're the dirty hack that shot your woman down”
Yes, oh yes, my name is 
Willie Lee
If you've got a warrant just read it to me
I shot her down 'cause she made me slow
I thought 
I was her daddy but she had five more
When I was arrested, 
I was dressed in black
They put me on a train and they took me back
I had no friend for to go my bail
They slapped my doddered carcass in that county jail
The next morning 'bout a half past nine
I spied a 
Sheriff comin' down the line
He kind of coughed as he cleared his throat
He said, “
Come on you dirty hack, to the district court”
I entered the courtroom and my trial began
Where I was held by twelve honest men
Just before the jury started out
I saw that dirty judge commence to look about
In about five minutes, in walked a man
Holding the verdict in his right hand
The verdict read “
In the first degree"I hollered, "
Lordy, Lordy, have mercy on me”
The judge smiled as he picked up his pen“
Ninety-nine years in the 
Folsom State 
Pen”Ninety-nine years underneath that ground
I can't forget the day 
I shot that bad bitch down
Come on you've gotta listen up to me“
Lay off that whiskey and let that cocaine be”[Incomprehensible]
