Cocaine Blues Recorded by Johnny Cash written by T.J. Arnall
C Early one morning while making the rounds G7 I took a shot of cocaine and I shot my woman down
I went right home and I went to bed C I stuck that loving 44 beneath my head
Got up next morning and I grabbed that gun G7 Took a shot of cocaine and away I run
Made a good run but I run too slow C They overtook me down in Juarez Mexico
Late in the hot joints taking the pills G7 In walked the sheriff from Jericho Hill
He said Willy Lee your name is not Jack Brown C You're the dirty hack that shot your woman down
Said yes oh yes my name is Willy Lee G7 If you've got the warrant just a-read it to me
Shot her down because she made me slow C I thought I was her daddy but she had five more
When I was arrested I was dressed in black G7 They put me on a train and they took me back
Had no friend for to go my bail C They slapped my dried up carcass in that country jail
Early next morning bout a half past nine G7 I spied the sheriff coming down the line
Talked and he coughed as he cleared his throat C He said come on you dirty heck into that district court
Into the courtroom my trial began G7 Where I was handled by twelve honest men
Just before the jury started out C I saw the little judge commence to look about
In about five minutes in walked the man G7 Holding the verdict in his right hand
The verdict read in the first degree C I hollered Lordy Lordy have a mercy on me
The judge he smiled as he picked up his pen G7 99 years in the Folsom pen
99 years underneath that ground C I can't forget the day I shot that bad bitch down
F Come on you've gotta listen unto me G7 C Lay off that whiskey and let that cocaine be
