Me and poor boy was traveling

Traveling a long way from home

Me and poor boy got brought off

Got brought off and praised and found

My dear mother she got worried

When we was down all in the farm

Mama she called that farmer

And he told her that it's an prison bound

My dear mother got on the farm

She called down a little far

My mother talked to the sergeant

He wanted not have mercy out on me

Well this sergeant told dear mother

He would take two hundred dollar bill

We didn't have no one

To come and get us out of bail

Poor boy he got all worried

Calm walking to was breaking down

I said poor boy don't worry

Our mother get us out of prison bound

Well this sergeant told dear mother

He went take two hundred dollar bill

We didn't have no one

To come and get us out of bail

Oh my mother she got worried

She couldn't get them two hundred dollar bill

So one Sunday morning

My mother she drove to the farm

Well the sergeant met my mother

Drove on up to at gate

My mother she told the sergeant

She never had no two hundred dollar bill

Well my mother she kneeled down

Mother kneeled down pardon me

Oh my mother please the sergeant

Will you please sir have some mercy on me

My dear mother she will crying

Told the sergeant then she broke down

He said these boys promised

They will not hobo on my train

I said listen brother poor boy

Don't be worry of crime

Somebody somebody somewhere

Gonna get us out of prison bound

Oh oh oh
