Cocaine Blues - Hank Thompson[00:00:00]
Early one mornin' while makin' the rounds[00:00:00]
I took a shot of cocaine and I shot my woman down[00:00:04]
Went right home and I went to bed[00:00:08]
I stuck that lovin'44 beneath my head[00:00:12]
Woke up next mornin' grabbed that gun[00:00:15]
Took a shot of cocaine and away I run[00:00:19]
I made a good run but I went too slow[00:00:22]
They overtook me down in juarez mexico[00:00:26]
Late in the hot joints smokin' the pill[00:00:30]
In walked the sheriff from jericho hill[00:00:34]
He said willy lee your name is not jack brown[00:00:37]
You're the dirty hack that shot your woman down[00:00:41]
Yes oh yes my name is willy lee[00:01:00]
If you've got the warrant just read it to me[00:01:03]
Shot her cold cause she made me sore[00:01:07]
I thought I was her daddy but she had five more[00:01:10]
Put me on the train I was dressed in black[00:01:14]
Came the sherriff and he brought me back[00:01:18]
Had no one for to go my bail[00:01:22]
They slapped my dried up carcass in that country jail[00:01:25]
And next morning along about nine[00:01:29]
I spied the sheriff coming down the line[00:01:33]
Ah and he coughed as he cleared his throat[00:01:36]
He said come on you dirty hack into that district court[00:01:40]
Into the courtroom trial began[00:01:58]
Where I was handled by twelve honest men[00:02:02]
Just before the jury started out[00:02:06]
I saw the little judge commence to look about[00:02:09]
In about five minutes in walked the man[00:02:13]
Holding the verdict in his right hand[00:02:17]
The verdict read in the first degree[00:02:20]
I hollered lowdy lowdy have a mercy on me[00:02:24]
Judge he smiled as he picked up his ben[00:02:28]
Ninety nine years in that old san quentin pen[00:02:31]
Ninety nine years underneath that ground[00:02:35]
I can't forget the day I shot my woman down[00:02:38]
Come all you hots and listen unto me[00:02:42]
Lay off that whiskey and let that cocaine be[00:02:46]
