1 X 1 Ain’t 2
I was almost thirty Lord goin' on fourteen
Hocked my gold watch 'n' bought some blue jeans
Jumped a slow freight train to Alabam'
I told my junkie friends in Milwaukee
For the last time friends you will see me
I'm headed South to find out where I am
It is light when you wake up wiped out
Turnkey tryin' to knock your lights out
Someone yelled jail-break in the block
Thirteen years of losin' Lord I'm tired of boozin'
I just found out that where I am is where it's not
Why don't you send me some money Mama for to go my bail
Care of Marble Eyes Small in the Monroe County Jail
Yes I know I done you wrong girl but you know I done it well
Why don't you send me some money Mama for to go my bail
Workin' in a coal mine I don't need no shoe shine
Shoe shine in a coal mine is just a waste of good time
One time one ain't two you two-time-timin' you
Who do you think you're foolin' your heels need some coolin'
So I got a good mind just to blow you out of my mind
Why don't you send me some money Mama for to go my bail
Care of Marble Eyes Small in the Monroe County Jail
Yes I know I done you wrong girl but you know I done it well
Why don't you send me some money Mama for to go my bail
Hit the street sleet beat around my feet beat beat
I got some time to beat treat
Treat or trick or treat heat
I find you goin' my way I mind you blowin' my day
Who do you think you're foolin' your heels need some coolin'
So I've got a good mind just to blow you out of my mind
Whoa send me some money Mama for to go my bail
Care of Marble Eyes Small in the Monroe County Jail
Yes I know I done you wrong girl but you know I done it well hell
Won't you send me some money Mama for to go my bail
Why don't you send me some money Mama for to go my bail
Care of Marble Eyes Small in the Monroe County Jail
Yes I know I done you wrong child but you know I done it well
Why don't you send me some money Mama for to go my bail
