Joliet Bound

Now the police comin'
 With his ball and chain
 Mmm-mmm
 Police comin'
 With his ball and chain
 And they accusing me of murder
 Never harmed a man
 Now some got six months
 Some got a solid year
 Mmmm mmmm
 Some got six months
 Some got one solid year
 Now me and my buddy
 Got a lifetime here
 Now the judge he pleaded
 Clerk, he wrote it down
 Mmmm mmmm
 Judge he pleaded
 Clerk, he wrote it down
 That if I miss jail sentence now
 Must be Joliet Bound
 Now cook my supper
 Let me go to bed
 Mmmm mmmm
 Cook my supper now
 Let me go to bed
 I've been drinking white lightnin'
 And it's gone to my head
 Now quit me baby
 Do anything you want to do
 Mmmm mmmm
 Quit me baby
 Do anything you want to do
 Some day you gonna want me
 Cinch and I won't want you
 Now the police shoved his old
 Pistol in my side
 Mmmm mmmm
 Police shoved his old
 Pistol in my side
 Said, if you run big boy, now
 Must be born to die
 When they had my trial
 You could not be found
 Mmmm mmmm
 Had my trial
 You could not be found
 Now that I got all messed up
 And I'm Joliet Bound
