Verse 1
A
I went down to the county jail
Spending all my weekends here
Far from my good-timing friends
Things just went from bad to worse
A
The only thing I know for sure
E
A
D
A
Is I ain't going back again
Verse 2
A
They took me down to cellblock B
E
After stripping off my clothes
Put me in a monkey suit
A
And threw me in the throes
Like a rat in a maze
A cow in the herd
D
Dm
Or a sparrow with a broken wing
D
A
Now I know the reason why
E
A
The caged bird has to sing
Verse 3
E
'Cause I'm just a weekender
D
A
In the Davidson County Jail
E
And my old man, he ain't got the cash
D
A
To even go my bail
Should have listened to my mama
D
And quit my life of sin
A
E
Before I went backsliding again
A
Verse 4
This bed is hard and the room is cold
E
And my cellmate's got a cough
She takes her meds and sleeps all day
A
Got six more weeks til she's off
She said she beat her boyfriend up
D
While high on crack cocaine
A
And now she sits and watches
E
A
Her life go down the drain
Verse 5
E
'Cause she's just a weekender
D
A
In the Davidson County Jail
E
Her old man ain't got the cash
D
A
To even go her bail
She should have listened to her mama
D
And quit her life of sin
A

Before she went backsliding again

Verse 6
A
Walk into some other room
E
They tried to make me eat
Red-dyed gravy, gravy, cardboard bread
A
And something that looked like meat
One tough girl from cellblock C
D
Picked a fight with the man at the desk
A
Mighty soon was sent back to her room
E
A
And I bet you know the rest
Verse 7
E
'Cause we're all just weekenders
D
A
In the Davidson County Jail
E
My old man ain't got the cash

To even call my bail
Should have listened to the good Lord
D
Maybe quit my life of sin

Before I went backsliding again
