Cocaine Blues Lyrics - At Folsom Prison - Johnny Cash

Early one mornin' while makin' the rounds 

I took a shot of cocaine and I shot my woman down 

I went right home and I went to bed 

I stuck that lovin' .44 beneath my head 

 

Got 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, Mexico 

 

Late 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 down 

 

Said yes, oh yes my name is Willy Lee 

If you've got the warrant just a-read it to me 

Shot her down because she made me sore 

I thought I was her daddy but she had five more

When 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 jail 

 

Early 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 court 

 

Into the courtroom my trial began 

Where I was handled by twelve honest men 

Just before the jury started out 

I saw the little judge commence to look about 

 

In about five minutes in walked the man 

Holding the verdict in his right hand 

The verdict read murder in the first degree 

I hollered Lawdy Lawdy, have a mercy on me

The 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 down 

 

Come on you've gotta listen unto me 

Lay off that whiskey and let that cocaine be
