City Jail (Live at Österåker Prison, Sweden - October 1972) - Johnny Cash
City jail city jail like an old scared dog I tuck my tail Bow my head and not a careless word is said Gotta sleep on the floor once more at city jail Well I was hangin'round the bus station Mindin'my own business like I always do When I saw this waitress in this bus station cafe And I thought I check out the action like I always do I'dgive her the bad eye And made a few choices personal comments About what I thought mine And her possibilities could be for a team When she called the badge on me The badge grabbed me by the arm and he said What are you doin'hangin'around here for And I said for whatever'sgoin'around City jail city jail like an old scared dog I tuck my tail Bow my head and not a careless word is said Gotta sleep on the floor once more at city jail He said no what I mean is what are you doin'Sayin'things like that to that lady And I said what'sthat lady'sdoin'with purple hair Well the badge said you'resmart alec And I said no I ain'tI'mjust hungry And he said you'reactin'like a smart alec And I said no that'show I act when I get hungry City jail city jail like an old scared dog I tuck my tail Bow my head and not a careless word is said Gotta sleep on the floor once more at city jail Well he put me outside in a dark corner And before you could say hypocrite he hit me on the head And I said oooh don'thit me on the head I can'tprotect myself with the handcuffs on Please don'thit me on the head then he hit me again He hit me again he hit me again And I said oh oh oh oh oh Please don'tstand on my feet when you hit me I break my ankles when I fall City jail city jail like an old scared dog I tuck my tail Bow my head and not a careless word is said Gotta sleep on the floor once more at city jail Well about that time they threw me in the wagon And that waitress walked out with a sailor I said hey you not you I'mtalkin'To the purple people eater Yes you lady quote you'rethe cause of it all unquote Then she said to that sailor said get me away From that horrible man Harry City jail city jail like an old scared dog I tuck my tail Bow my head and not a careless word is said Gotta sleep on the floor once more at city jail Well as they hauled me away I said everybody have a nice evening Guitar score
