Murderer's Home Blues

WILLIE MCTELL

I did all I could baby, satisfy your mind
Well I wake up every morning you got me moaning and crying
Trying to send me to the chain gang, back to the murderers' home
I'd have been in a better shape mama, if I'd let that reckless woman alone

Now I'm gonna have to give you my number, 4-11-44
I'll be there forever, I ain't got no where's else to go
'Cause I've got to go to the chain gang, back to the murderers' home
I'd have been in a better shape mama, if I'd let that reckless woman alone

He was a mean old judge, wouldn't give me no fine
Only thing going to relieve me is old Father Time
I got to go to the chain gang, back to the murderers' home
I would have been in a better shape mama, if I'd have let that reckless woman alone

When I was down in the alley mama drinking that old mean booze and gin
Say you better do your running around 'cause you ain't never going to do it again
'Cause it leads me straight to the chain gang, down to the murderers' home
I'd have been in a better shape mama, if I'd have let that reckless woman alone

Goodbye everybody here comes the jailer with a key
Farewell to freedom I don't want no one to pity me
I'm going to the chain gang, down to the murderers' home
I'd have been in a better shape mama, if I'd have let that reckless woman alone

So now bye-bye all you womens this is the last I've got to say
Say I'm going on and make my time I'll be a free man some day
But I ain't going back to the chain gang, back to the murderers' home
I'd have been in a better shape baby, if I'd have let that reckless woman alone
