Cocaine Blues (Live at Folsom State Prison, Folsom, CA - January 1968) - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)

Early one mornin' while makin' the rounds

I took a shot of coc*ine and I shot my woman down

I went right home and I went to bed

I stuck that lovin' 44 beneath my head

Got up next mornin' and I grabbed that gun

Took a shot of coc*ine and away I run

Made a good run but I run too slow

They overtook me down in Juarez Mexico

Late in the hot joints takin' the pill

In walked the sheriff from Jericho Hill

He said "Willy Lee your name is not Jack Brown

You're the dirty hack that shot your woman down"

Said "Yes oh yes my name is Willy Lee

If you've got a warrant just read it to me

Shot her down because 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

Had no friend for to go my bail

They slapped my dried up carcass in that county jail

Early next mornin' bout a half past nine

I spied the sheriff coming down the line

Ah and he coughed as he cleared his throat

He said come on you dirty heck into that district court

Into the courtroom my trial began

Where I was handled by twelve honest men

Just before the jury started out

I saw the little 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 he smiled as he picked up his pen

99 years in the Folsom pen

99 years underneath that ground

I can't forget the day I shot that bad b**ch down

Come on you gotta' listen to unto me

Lay off that whiskey let that coc*ine be
