A Week in a Country Jail

A Week in a Country Jail - Done Again (又一次乐队)[00:00:00]

One time I spent a week inside a little country jail[00:00:13]

And I don't guess I'll ever live it down[00:00:17]

I was sittin' at a red light[00:00:21]

When these two men came and got me[00:00:23]

And said that I was speeding through their town[00:00:25]

Well they said "[00:00:29]

Tomorrow morning you can see the judge [00:00:30]

Then go"[00:00:32]

They let me call one person on the phone[00:00:34]

I thought I'd be there overnight [00:00:38]

So I just called my boss[00:00:40]

To tell him I'd be off but not for long[00:00:42]

Well they motioned me inside a cell[00:00:46]

With seven other guys[00:00:49]

One little barred up window in the rear[00:00:51]

My cell mates said if they had[00:00:55]

Let me bring some money in[00:00:57]

We ought to send the jailer for some beer[00:00:59]

Well I had to pay him double[00:01:03]

'Cause he was the man in charge[00:01:05]

And the jailer's job was not the best in town[00:01:08]

Later on his wife brought hot bologna [00:01:12]

Eggs and gravy[00:01:15]

The first day I was there I turned it down[00:01:16]

Well next morning they just let us sleep[00:01:20]

But I was up real early[00:01:23]

Wonderin' when I'd get my release[00:01:25]

Later on we got more hot bologna [00:01:29]

Eggs and gravy[00:01:32]

And by now I wasn't quite so hard to please[00:01:33]

Two days later when I thought[00:01:38]

That I had been forgotten[00:01:39]

The sheriff came in chewin' on a straw[00:01:42]

He said "Where is the guy who thinks[00:01:46]

That this is Indianapolis [00:01:48]

I'd like to talk to him about the law"[00:01:50]

Well I told him who I was and told him[00:01:54]

I was working steady[00:01:57]

And I really should be gettin' on my way[00:01:59]

That part about me bein'[00:02:03]

Who I was did not impress him[00:02:04]

He said "The judge'll be here any day"[00:02:07]

The jailer had a wife and let me tell you [00:02:12]

She was awful[00:02:14]

But she brought that hot bologna every day[00:02:16]

And after seven days she got to lookin'[00:02:20]

So much better[00:02:23]

I asked her if she'd like to run away[00:02:24]

The next mornin' that old judge[00:02:28]

Took every nickel that I had[00:02:30]

And he said "Son let this teach you not to race"[00:02:33]

The jailer's wife was smilin' from the window as I left[00:02:37]

In thirty minutes I was out of state[00:02:41]
