Bet it ain't a rainin' back home bet your sister's still on the phone Bet mama's in the kitchen cookin' fried chicken wishin' that I hadn't went wrong Oh but mama don't you worry everything's gonna be alright They're teachin' us a lot of new things in here 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 writin' hot checks down in Mississippi And there ain't no good chain gang [ guitar ] Papa's readin' yesterday's mail wishin' that the hay was all baled I bet that he's a wishin' we could go fishin' Stead of me sittin' here in this ol' damned jail There ain't no good... No there ain't no kinda good...
