Текст песни Cocaine Blues

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 the next morning and I grabbed my gun

took a shot of cocaine and away I run

Made a good run, but I run too slow -

they overtook me down in Juarez Mexico

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

(Instrumental break)

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"

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

(Instrumental break)

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!"
