[00:00:00] Blackjack County Chains (Album Version) - Willie Nelson/Waylon Jennings

[00:00:01] Written by：Red Lane

[00:00:27] I was sittin' beside the road in Blackjack County

[00:00:35] Not knowing that the sheriff paid a bounty

[00:00:42] For men like me who didn't have a penny to their names

[00:00:52] So he locked my leg to thirty five pounds of Blackjack County chain

[00:01:03] All we had to eat was bread and water

[00:01:08] Each day we had to build that road a mile and a quarter

[00:01:14] Black snake whip would cut our backs when some poor fool complained

[00:01:21] But we couldn't fight back wearin' thirty five pounds of Blackjack County chain

[00:01:28] And then one night while the sheriff was a sleeping

[00:01:34] We all gathered round him slowly creepin'

[00:01:39] Heaven help me to forget that night in the cold cold rain

[00:01:46] When we beat him death with thirty five pounds of Blackjack County chain

[00:01:53] Now the whip marks have all healed and I am thankful

[00:01:59] That there's nothing but a scar round my ankle

[00:02:04] But most of all I'm glad no man will be a slave again

[00:02:11] To a black snake whip and thirty five pounds of Blackjack County chain

[00:02:18] To a black snake whip and thirty five pounds of Blackjack County chain
