THE CHARLIE DANIELS BAND
INTRO: E A B E
VERSE:
Em E
I woke up on a cement floor this mornin,
Em E
My head felt like somebody been walkin' on it,
A
Don't know how I got here,
E
Don't remember nothin' at all,
F#
But if I done all the things that they say I did,
B
Well I sure musta had a ball
CHORUS:
A
Cause in 30 more days
I'm goin back home,
E
To see that gal of mine,
B
But the Wichita Jail
B
Is a long long way
Dbm
From the Tupelo County line,
B
I gotta do my time
VERSE:
Em
Well I aint got a cent of the money I had
E
I spent it
Em E
Shirts tore, my shoes got a big hole in it,
A
There's a king size knot on the side of my head
E
And I got one big black eye
F#
But brother if you think I look bad,
B
You oughtta see that other guy

Well this nine pound hammer feels like it weighs a ton

Makin lil ones outta big ones in this red hot Kansas sun
