Fix my supper

And let me go to

And let me go to bed, indeed Lord

Fix my supper

An let me go to bed

Now I’ve been drinkin' white lightning

It’s done gone to my head

The judge he pleaded

The clerk he wrote it

The clerk he wrote it, down indeed, Lord

The judge he pleaded

The clerk he wrote it down

Now I say, if you miss the jail, sinner

You must be Nashville bound

(harmonica & instrumental)

Some got six months

Some got one solid

Some got one solid year, indeed Lord

Some got six months

Some got one solid year

Now well, me an Walter Davis

We both got a life time here.
