Songtext von Rope Stretchin' Blues (Part 1)

I caught a stranger in my house: And I busted his head With a club I lay him out cold: With his heels in a tub I seen the sheriff coming: And I jumped for the door But I jumped too late: The sheriff had done jumped Before They buried a man thursday: Just two short days you see And it makes me wonder: What they going to do to me I killed a man: And that's the how and how I'm sitting here wondering: If a woman's worth it now Mmm: Rope stretching all day long In just a few more days: I won't be able to sing my song
