Letra de Cocaine Blues (Live at Annex 14 NCO Club, Long Binh, Vietnam, January 1969)
Early one mornin' while makin' the rounds I took a shot of cocaine and I shot my woman down Went right home and I went to bed I stuck that lovin' .44 beneath my headGot up next mornin' and I grabbed that gun Took a shot of cocaine and away I run Made a good run but I ran too slow They overtook me down in Juarez, MexicoLate in the hot joints takin' the pills In walked the sheriff from Jericho Hill He said Willy Lee your name is not Jack Brown You're the dirty heck that shot your woman downAnd yes, oh yes my name is Willy Lee If you've got the warrant just read it to me Shot her down because she made me sore I thought I was her daddy but she had five moreWhen I was arrested I was dressed in black They put me on a train and they took me back Had no friend for to go my bail They slapped my dried up carcass in that county jailAnd that next mornin' bout a half past nine I spied the sheriff coming down the line Ah, and he coughed as he cleared his throat He said come on you dirty heck into that district courtInto the courtroom my trial began Where I was handled by 12 honest men Just before the jury started out I saw the little judge commence to look aboutIn about five minutes in walked the man Holding the verdict in his right hand Verdict read in the first degree I hollered Lawdy Lawdy, have a mercy on meThe judge he smiled as he picked up his pen 99 years in the Folsom pen 99 years underneath that ground I can't forget the day I shot that bad bitch downCome on you've gotta listen unto me Lay off that whiskey and let that cocaine be (Yeah)(Cock fly) (My cock fly) (Will do it Thank you very much We are going to do that one for you I like it I meet Since the death of Luther Perkins Our guitarist this young man has been doing a wonderful job Those two from tall sophomore Mr. Bob Wootton Bob Wootton) (Is the Bob gone?)(The other two of the Tennessee Three had been with me for thirteen years, Marshall Grant and W.S Holland)
