That'll Get You Ten - Jeff Bates[00:00:01]

Just two years an' seven days[00:00:13]

Between me an' legal age[00:00:17]

Just one clerk in that liquor store[00:00:20]

Between me an' that front door[00:00:23]

My coat had deep pockets[00:00:26]

An' he probably had a gun[00:00:29]

Well I reckon he was watchin' 'cause he said[00:00:32]

"Son that'll get you one"[00:00:36]

"One year pickin' up trash on the highway[00:00:41]

One phone call to hear your momma's heartbreak[00:00:44]

If you think it's worth it don't let me stop you son[00:00:47]

'Cause that'll get you one"[00:00:52]

She had a beer in her hand she was comin' on strong[00:00:59]

An' I was just this close to takin' her home[00:01:02]

Things were lookin' good when we left that bar[00:01:06]

Till she stopped an' said "That's my car"[00:01:09]

That's when I saw the sticker[00:01:13]

That said 'Franklin County High'[00:01:15]

Well I didn't even kiss the girl goodbye[00:01:19]

'Cause that'll get you five[00:01:24]

Five years bustin' up rocks on the chain gang[00:01:27]

Pound in' and a bang straight plates in the same sink[00:01:30]

Wonderin' if I'm ever gonna make it out alive[00:01:34]

An' those tan breaks might get me thinkin' 'bout a jailbreak[00:01:39]

Askin' my mom to slip a file in my bun cake[00:01:43]

Those bloodhounds'd probably haul me back in[00:01:47]

An' that's another ten[00:01:51]

Boss man climbin' down my back[00:02:05]

Won't cut me one inch of slack[00:02:08]

'Tween that steel beam an' the ground below[00:02:12]

It'd be a nasty fall if the wind should blow[00:02:15]

I don't see a witness an' we're up here awful high[00:02:18]

If he should lose his balance[00:02:24]

He might not survive[00:02:26]

But that'd get you life[00:02:30]

Pumpin' that iron with the boys on the cell-block[00:02:32]

Tyin' my soap to a rope so it don't drop[00:02:36]

An' some ol' boy thinks my biceps look nice[00:02:39]

Writin' to the governor an' beggin' for a pardon[00:02:45]

Thinkin' "That's how Merle Haggard got started"[00:02:49]

Swappin' cigarettes for momma's apple pie[00:02:52]

Lookin' through the glass an' talkin' to my lawyer[00:02:58]

Memorizing Moby Dick an' Tom Sawyer[00:03:02]

Tellin' the parole board I learned wrong from right[00:03:05]

Yeah that'd get you life yeah that'd get you life[00:03:10]
