A Week in a Country Jail (In the Style of Tom T. Hall) (Vocal Version) - Singer's Edge Karaoke (卡拉OK)[00:00:00]

Du [00:00:04]

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[00:00:26]

Well they said tomorrow morning[00:00:30]

You can see the judge then go[00:00:32]

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

I thought i'd be there overnight so i just called my boss[00:00:39]

To tell him i'd be off but not for long[00:00:43]

Well they motioned me inside a cell[00:00:47]

With seven other guys[00:00:49]

One little barred up window in the rear[00:00:52]

My cellmates said if they had let me bring some money in[00:00:56]

We ought to send the jailer for some beer[00:01:00]

Well i had to pay him double[00:01:05]

Cause he was the man in charge[00:01:06]

And the jailer's job was not the best in town[00:01:09]

Later on his wife brought hot bologna eggs and gravy[00:01:13]

The first day i was there i turned it down[00:01:18]

Well next morning they just let us sleep[00:01:22]

But i was up real early[00:01:24]

Wonderin when i'd get my release[00:01:26]

Later on we got more hot bologna eggs and gravy[00:01:31]

And by now i wasn't quite so hard to please[00:01:35]

Two days later when i thought that i had been forgotten[00:01:39]

The sheriff came in chewin on a straw[00:01:43]

He said where is the guy who thinks[00:01:48]

That this is indianapolis[00:01:50]

I'd like to talk to him about the law[00:01:52]

Well i told him who i was and told him[00:01:56]

I was working steady[00:01:59]

And i really should be gettin on my way[00:02:01]

That part about me bein who i was did not impress him[00:02:05]

He said the judge'll be here any day[00:02:09]

The jailer had a wife and let me tell you she was awful[00:02:14]

But she brought that hot bologna every day[00:02:18]

And after seven days she got to lookin so much better[00:02:22]

I asked her if she'd like to run away[00:02:27]

The next mornin that old judge[00:02:31]

Took every nickel that i had[00:02:33]

And he said son let this teach you not to race[00:02:35]

The jailer's wife was smilin from the window as i left[00:02:40]

In thirty minutes i was out of state[00:02:44]
