I Got Stripes(Live)

歌詞

On a Monday, I was arrested, uh, huh On a Tuesday, they locked me in the jail, poor boy On a Wednesday, my trial was attested On a Thursday, they said, guilty and the judge's gavel fell I got stripes, stripes around my shoulders I got chains, chains around my feet I got stripes, stripes around my shoulders And them chains them chains they're about to drag me down On a Monday, got my striped britches, uh, huh On a Tuesday, got my ball and chain, poor boy On a Wednesday, I'm workin' diggin' ditches On a Thursday, Lord I'd begged them not to knock me down again I got stripes, stripes around my shoulders I got chains, chains around my feet I got stripes, stripes around my shoulders And them chains them chains they're about to drag me down On a Monday, my momma come to see me, uh, huh On a Tuesday, they caught me with a file, poor boy On a Wednesday, I'm down in solitary On a Thursday, Lord, I start on bread and water for a while I got stripes, stripes around my shoulders I got chains, chains around my feet I got stripes, stripes around my shoulders And them chains them chains they're about to drag me down
