《Bad Man’s Blunder》歌词

[00:00:08] Well early one evenin' I was rolling around

[00:00:10] I was feelin' kinda mean I shot a deputy down

[00:00:14] Strolled along home and I went to bed

[00:00:16] Well I laid my pistol up under my head

[00:00:19] He strolled along home

[00:00:20] I took my time

[00:00:21] And he went to bed

[00:00:23] Thought I'd sleep some

[00:00:25] Laid his pistrol

[00:00:26] Big 22

[00:00:27] Up under his head

[00:00:29] I keep it handy

[00:00:33] Well early in the mornin' bout the break of day

[00:00:35] I figured it was time to make a getaway

[00:00:38] Steppin' right along but I was steppin' too slow

[00:00:41] Got surrounded by a sheriff down in Mexico

[00:00:43] Well he was steppin' right along

[00:00:45] I were a hot footin' it

[00:00:46] But he was steppin' too slow

[00:00:48] It was a sultry day

[00:00:49] Got surrounded by a sheriff

[00:00:51] Boxed in

[00:00:52] In Mexico

[00:00:53] I didn't even have a chance to see the country

[00:00:57] When I was arrested well I didn't have a dime

[00:01:00] The sheriff said 'Son you're riding free this time

[00:01:03] 'Where you're going you won't need a cent

[00:01:06] 'Cause the great state of Texas gonna pay your rent

[00:01:09] 'Cause where you're going

[00:01:10] I think he means jail

[00:01:11] You won't need a cent

[00:01:13] Well he knows I'm broke

[00:01:14] 'Cause the great state of Texas

[00:01:16] Yippee

[00:01:17] Gonna pay your rent

[00:01:18] I'm mighty grateful fellas

[00:01:22] Well I didn't have a key and I didn't have a file

[00:01:26] Naturally I stayed around until my trial

[00:01:28] Judge was an old man Ninety three

[00:01:31] And I didn't like the way the jury looked at me

[00:01:33] Well the judge was an old man

[00:01:35] Too old

[00:01:36] Ninety three

[00:01:38] Entirely too old

[00:01:39] I didn't like the way

[00:01:42] The jury looked at me

[00:01:44] I think they were suspicious

[00:01:46] The judge and jury they did agree

[00:01:49] They all said murder in the first degree

[00:01:52] The judge said same

[00:01:53] 'Well I dunno whether to hang you or not

[00:01:55] But this here killin' of deputy sheriffs has just naturally got to stop'

[00:01:59] You gotta point there judge

[00:02:02] It was a most unsatisfactory trial

[00:02:04] They gave me ninety nine years on the hard rock pile

[00:02:07] Ninety and nine on the hard rock ground

[00:02:10] And all I ever did was shoot a deputy down

[00:02:13] Ninety and nine

[00:02:14] It could have been life

[00:02:15] On the hard rock pile

[00:02:16] They might a hung me

[00:02:18] And all he ever did

[00:02:22] Was shoot a deputy down

[00:02:29] This whole thing has sure been a lesson to me

[00:02:34] Bang You're dead
