Karaoke Track: Cocaine Blues by Johnny Cash (Sunfly)

COCAINE

Early one mornin&#39;

while makin&#39;
the rounds

Took a shot of cocaine

and away I run

Made a good run
but I ran too slow

they overtook me
down in Juarez Mexico

Late in the hot joints
takin&#39; the pills

in walked the sheriff
from Jericho Hill

He said Willy Lee

your name is not
Jack Brown

Said yes

oh yes my name is
Willy Lee

Shot her down

because she
made me sore

I thought I was

her daddy but
she had five more

When I was arrested

I was dressed in black
they put me on a train
and they took me back

Had no friend for
to go my hail

they slapped my
dried up carcass
in that county jail

Early next mornin&#39;
&#39;hout a half past nine
I spied the sheriff
coming down the line

Ah and he coughed as
he cleared his throat
he said Come on
you dirty heck into
that district court

Into the courtroom
my trial began

where I was handled
by twelve honest men

Just before the jury
started out

I saw the little judge
commence to
look about

In about five minutes

in walked the man

Holding the verdict
in his right hand

the verdict read
murder in the
first degree

I hollered Lordy Lordy

have a mercy on me

Ninety-nine years

in the Folsom pen

Come on you&#39;ve gotta
listen unto me

lay off that whiskey
and let that
cocaine he...
