Bet it ain't raining back home |
|
Bet your sister's still on the phone |
|
Bet Momma's in the kitchen, cooking fried chicken |
|
Wishing that I hadn't done wrong |
|
Yeah, Momma, don't you worry about it none though |
|
Everything's gonna be all right, Momma |
|
They're teaching us a lot of new things in here Momma |
|
Things like |
|
There ain't no good in an evil-hearted woman |
|
And I ain't cut out to be no Jesse James |
|
And you don't go writing hot cheques down in Mississippi |
|
And there ain't no good chain gang |
|
Papa's reading yesterday's mail |
|
Wishing that the hay was all baled |
|
I bet he's a-wishing we could go fishing |
|
And here I am a-laying in jail |
|
Well, Papa, don't you worry about it none now |
|
Everything's gonna be all right, Papa |
|
They're teaching us a lesson a day we're learning pretty well too |
|
We've already learned a whole lot of stuff already |
|
Things like |
|
There ain't no good in an evil-hearted woman |
|
And I ain't cut out to be no Jesse James |
|
And you don't go writing hot cheques down in Mississippi |
|
And there ain't no good chain gang |
|
There ain't no good in an evil-hearted woman |
|
And I ain't cut out to be no Jesse James |
