Capo 1

A

Bet it ain’t rainin’ back home

A

Bet your sister’s still on the phone

A F#7

Bet momma’s in the kitchen, cookin’ fried chicken

D E A

Wishin’ that I hadn’t done wrong

Spoken:

A

Momma, don’t you worry ‘bout it none, though

A

Everything’s gonna be alright, momma

A

They’re teachin’ us a lot of new things in here, mama

Chorus:

A

There ain’t no good in an evil hearted woman

A

And I ain’t cut out to be no Jesse James

D A F#7

And you don’t go writin’ hot checks down in Mississippi

D E A E A

And there ain’t no good chain gang

Papa’s readin’ yesterdays mail

Wishin’ that the hay was all baled

I bet he’s wishin’ we could go fishin’

But here I am layin’ in jail

Spoken:

Well, papa, don’t you worry ‘bout it none

Now everything’s gonna be alright, papa

They’re teachin’ us a lesson a day

And we’re learnin’ pretty well, too

We’ve already learned a whole lot of stuff already
