Wichita Jail

Lyrics

I woke up on a cement floor this mornin,
 My head felt like somebody been walkin on it,
 Don't know how I got here,
 Don't remember nothin at all,
 but if I done all the things that they say I did,
 well I sure musta had a ball
 Cause in 30 more days
 I'm goin back home,
 to see that gal of mine,
 but the Wichita Jail
 is a long long way
 from the Tupelo County line,
 I gotta do my time
 Well I aint got a cent of the money I had
 I spent it
 Shirts tore, my shoes got a big hole in it,
 Theres a king size knot on the side of my head
 and I got one big black eye
 But brother if you think I look bad,
 you oughtta see that other guy
 Cause in 30 more days
 I'm goin back home,
 to see that gal of mine,
 but the Wichita Jail
 is a long long way
 from the Tupelo County line,
 I gotta do my time
 Well this nine pound hammer feels like it weighs a ton
 makin lil ones outta big ones in this red hot Kansas sun
 I just hope I can make it 30 more days
 and get out of this mess I'm in,
 and if I ever get back to Mississippi
 I aint ever gonna leave again
 Cause in 30 more days
 I'm goin back home,
 to see that gal of mine,
 but the Wichita Jail
 is a long long way
 from the Tupelo County line,
 I gotta do my time
 I gotta do my time
 I gotta do my time
 I gotta do my time
