I Washed My Hands In Muddy Water - Stonewall Jackson[00:00:00]
I was born in Macon Georgia[00:00:09]
They kept my dad in the Macon jail[00:00:15]
Dad said son if you keep your hands clean[00:00:20]
You won't hear them bloodhounds on your trail[00:00:27]
But I fell in with bad companions we robbed a man in Tennessee[00:00:32]
The sheriff caught me way up in Nashville[00:00:44]
They locked me up and threw away the key[00:00:50]
I washed my hands in muddy water[00:00:56]
Washed my hands but they didn't come clean[00:01:02]
Tried to do like daddy told me but[00:01:08]
I must have washed my hands in a muddy stream[00:01:14]
I asked the jailor when's[00:01:20]
My time up he said son we won't forget[00:01:23]
And if you try to keep[00:01:31]
Your hands clean we may make a good man of you yet[00:01:35]
I couldn't wait to do my sentence[00:01:43]
I broke out of the Nashville jail[00:01:49]
I just crossed the line of Georgia and[00:01:55]
I can hear them bloodhounds on my trail[00:02:02]
I washed my hands in muddy water[00:02:07]
Washed my hands but they didn't come clean[00:02:12]
Tried to do like daddy told me but[00:02:18]
I must have washed my hands in a muddy stream[00:02:25]
