Pickpocket Blues |
My best man, my best friend |
Told me to stop peddlin' Gin |
They even told me to keep my hands |
Out people’s pocket where their money was in |
But I wouldn’t listen or have any shame |
'long as someone else would take the blame |
Now I can see it all come home to me |
I’m sittin' in the jailhouse now |
I mean, I’m in the jailhouse now |
I done stop runnin' around with this one |
And these good lookin' browns |
Any time you see me, I was good time bound |
With this one, that one, most all in town |
I’m in the jailhouse now |
I’m sittin' in the jailhouse now |
