^CEarly one mornin' while makin' the rounds ^CI took a shot of cocaine and I ^Gshot my woman down ^GI went right home and I went to bed I ^Cstuck that lovin' 44 beneath my head

^CGot up next mornin' and I grabbed that gun ^CTook a shot of cocaine and a^Gway I run ^GMade a good run but I ran too slow They ^Covertook me down in Juarez Mexico

^CLate in the hot joints takin' the pills ^CIn walked the sheriff from ^GJericho Hill ^GHe said Willy Lee your name is not Jack Brown ^CYou're the dirty heck that shot your woman down

^CSaid yes, oh yes my name is Willy Lee ^CIf you've got the warrant just a-read it to me ^G Shot her down because she made me sore I ^Cthought I was her daddy but she had five more

^CWhen I was arrested I was dressed in black ^CThey put me on a train and they ^Gtook me back ^GHad no friend for to go my bail They ^Cslapped my dried up carcass in that county jail

^CEarly next mornin' bout a half past nine ^CI spied the sheriff coming ^Gdown the line ^GAh, and he coughed as he cleared his throat He said come ^Con you dirty heck into that district court

^CInto the courtroom my trial began ^CWhere I was handled by ^Gtwelve honest men ^GJust before the jury started out I ^Csaw the little judge commence to look about

^CIn about five minutes in walked the man ^CHolding the verdict in ^Ghis right hand ^GThe verdict read murder in the first degree I ^Chollered Lordy Lordy, have a mercy on me

^CThe judge he smiled as he picked up his pen ^C99 years in the ^GFolsom pen ^G99 years underneath that ground I ^Ccan't forget the day I shot that bad bitch down
