County Jail Songtext
von Eric Clapton
County Jail Songtext
They picked me up
And put me in the county jail
They picked me up
Put me in the county jail
Wouldn′t even let my woman
Come and post my bail
Now I'm in prison
And I′ve almost did my time
Now I'm in prison
But I almost did my time
They gave me six months
But I had to work out nine
I know my baby
She's gonna jump and shout
I know my baby
She′s gonna jump and shout
When the train rolls up
I′ll come walking out
So take these stripes from around me
Chains from around my legs
Take these stripes from around me
And these chains around my legs
Stripes, they don't hurt me
But the chains ′bout to get me dead
And put me in the county jail
They picked me up
Put me in the county jail
Wouldn′t even let my woman
Come and post my bail
Now I'm in prison
And I′ve almost did my time
Now I'm in prison
But I almost did my time
They gave me six months
But I had to work out nine
I know my baby
She's gonna jump and shout
I know my baby
She′s gonna jump and shout
When the train rolls up
I′ll come walking out
So take these stripes from around me
Chains from around my legs
Take these stripes from around me
And these chains around my legs
Stripes, they don't hurt me
But the chains ′bout to get me dead
