Tonart: G major
Verse 1
G
C
Early one morning
while I'm making a round
I took a shot of cocaine
G
and I shot my woman down
I'd stray home and I'd lay to bed
C
G
I'd stack my love and .44
Get up the next morning I'd grab my gun
I took a shot of cocaine
Made a good run, but I ran too slow
C
G
They all took me down in Juras, Mexico
C
Landed in that hot joint, takin' a pill
G
Rain walked the sheriff from Jericho Hill
He said, Willie Lee,
your name is not Jack Brown
G
C
that shot your woman down
G
C
Oh yes, oh yes, my name is Willie Lee
G
If you got a warrant just read it to me
I shut her down cause she made me so
C
G
I thought I was her daddy
but she had five more
was dressed in black
They put me on a train
Had nobody for to go my bail
C
G
They slapped my dried up carcass
F
G
in that county jail
C
G
C
Early next morning, about half past nine
G
I spied the sheriff coming down the line
The man he cuffed as he cleared his throat
C
G
He said, come on, you dirty hack,
into the district court
C
Into that courtroom my trial began
G
Where I was held by the traveler's men
Just before the jury started out
C
G
I saw that little judge
commence to look about
C
In about five minutes in what the man
G
C
G
Holding the verdict in his right hand
The verdict read in the first degree
C
G
I hollered, Lordy, Lordy, have mercy on me
C
G
C
The judge, he smiled
G
as he picked up his pen
C
G
Ninety -nine years in that Folsom pen
Ninety -nine years underneath that crown
C
G
I can't forget the day
I shot that bad bitch down
C
F
So come on, fellas, listen unto me
C
and let that cocaine be you
