Well early one evenin I was rollin around

I was feelin kind of mean I shot a deputy down

Strollin on home and I went to bed

Well I laid my pistol up under my head

He strolled along home

I took my time

And he went to bed

Thought I sleep some

Laid his pistol

Big twenty

Up under his head

I keep it handy

Well early in the mornin the break of day

I figured it was time to make a getaway

Steppin right along but I was steppin too slow

Got surrounded by a sheriff down in Mexico

He was steppin right along

Were a footin it

But he was steppin too slow

It was a sultry day

Got surrounded by a sheriff

Boxed in

In Mexico

I didn even have a chance to see the country

When I was arrested I didn have a dime

The sheriff says you ridin free this time

Where you goin you won need a cent

the great state of Texas gonna pay your rent

where you goin

I think he means jail

You won need a cent

Well he knows I broke

the great state of Texas

Yippee

Gonna pay your rent

I mighty grateful fellas

Well I didn have a key and I didn have a file

Naturally I stayed around until my trial

The judge was an old man ninety

And I didn like the way the jury looked at me

Well the judge was an old man

Too old

Ninety

Entirely too old

I didn like the way the jury looked at me

I think they were suspicious

The judge and the jury they did agree

They all said murder in the first degree

The judge said same

don know whether to hang you or not

But this your killing of deputy sheriffs

Has just naturally got to stop

got a point there judge

It was a most unsatisfactory trial

They gave me ninety years on the hard rock pile

Ninety and nine on the hard rock ground

All I ever did was shoot a deputy down

Ninety and nine

It could have been life

On the hard rock pile

They might hung me

And all he ever did was shoot a deputy down

This whole thing has sure been a lesson to me

Bang you dead
