Early one mornin while makin the rounds, I took a shot of cocaine and

shot my woman down. I went right home and I went to bed, I stuck that

lovin .44 beneath my head. Got up the next mornin and I grabbed that gun.

Took a shot of cocaine and away I run. Made a good run but I run too slow,
C(pm) C
they overtook me down in Juarez, Mexico. Laid in the hot joints takin the

pill. In walked the sheriff from Jericho Hill. He said Willie Lee, your name
C(pm)
is not Jack Brown, you're the dirty hack that shot your woman down.
C G
Oh yes, my name is Willie Lee. If you've got a warrant just read it to me.

Shot her down because she made me sore. I thought I was her daddy but she
C
had five more. When I was arrested I was dressed in black. They put me on

a train and took me back. Had no friend for to go my bail. They slapped my

flared his nose, he said well come on you dirty hack into that district

court. Into the courtroom where my trial began where I was held by twelve

honest men. Just before the jury started out, I saw that little judge come

in his right hand. The verdict read in the first degree, I hollered lordy

lordy have mercy on me. The judge, he smiled as he picked up his pen.

ground, I can't forget the day I shot that bad bitch down. Come all, you
