 ( a. neville )



Too manytoo many morningsgotta wake up soon

Too manytoo many morningswhoa lord gotta wake up soon

Oh and eat my breakfast by the light of the moon



It was latevery late last summerwhen I first got my time

Whoa it was latevery very late last summer you know when iI first got my time

My buddy got one hundred yearsthank the lord I just got ninety-nine



If you seeif you see my mamawon't you tell her this for me

Lordif you seeif you see my dear old motherwon't you please tell her this for me

I got a long long time and lord knows when I'm gonna be free



You know they come up here a skippin' and a jumpin' but you know that they won't last long

Lordthey come up here a skippin' and a jumpin'but you know that they won't last long

One day they're gonna wish they were a baby boy in their mothers arms



You know they're alwaysalways talking about dangerous blue

Whoayou know they're always talking about dangerous blue

If I had my big old pistolyou know I'd be dangerous too



Twelve jury men found me guiltythe doorman looked me up and down

Lordtwelve jury men found me guiltyyou know the doorman looked me up and down

Just looked at me through the corner of his eye and said boyyou're penitentiary bound



One dayone day down in new orleansall the girls gonna jump and shout

Lordone day down in new orleans all the girls gonna jump and shout

When them big green gates open up wideI'll come steppin' out
