NOTE: SING CAPATALIZED WORDS VOICE ONLY

Intro (G) (C)

(C) I got in a little trouble at the county seat

Lord, they put me in the jailhouse

For loafing (G) on the (C) street

Well, the judge said guilty

He made his point

He said forty-five dollars

Or thirty (G) days in the (C) joint

That'll be (F) cash on the barrelhead, (C) hon

You can take your (G) choice

You're twenty (C) one

No money (F) down

No credit (C) plan

No time to (G) chase you

Cause I'm a busy (C) man

Instrumental break

NOTE:

-Follow the pattern of the six lines below marked with *

-The /// simply mean do three quick down-strums on (C) at that spot

-Then start normal strumming (C) at the word ‘arm'

(C) I found a telephone number on a laundry slip

I had a good, hardy jailor

With a (G) six gun (C) hip

He let me call long distance

She said, "Number, please"

And just as soon as I told her

She shouted (G) back at (C) me

Said that'll be (F) cash on the barrelhead, (C) hon

Not part, not (G) half

But the entire (C) sum

No money (F) down

No credit (C) line

Cause a little boy (G) tells me

You're the travelin' (C) kind

Instrumental (F) (C) (G) (C)

(C) Thirty days in the jailhouse

Four days on the road

I was feelin' mighty hungry

My feet, a (G) heavy (C) load

*I saw a Greyhound comin' ///

*STUCK OUT MY THUMB ///

*AS SOON AS I WAS SEATED ///

*THE DRIVER CAUGHT MY arm

*Said that'll be (F) cash on the barrelhead, (C) hon

*This old grey (G) dog gets paid to (C) run

When the engine (F) starts

And the wheels will (C) roll

Give me cash on the (G) barrelhead

I take you down the (C) road

Oh-ye-(F)-oh-oh-ye-oh-ye-ea-ea-ea-oh-(C)-oh

Cash on the (G) barrelhead

I take you down the (C) road
