| Well I’m leavin mississippi
|
| And im looking for higher ground
|
| Said 7 long months 39 days to turn my ways around
|
| Well I ain’t proud of the things I’ve done
|
| So I’ve got to change it now
|
| I said 7 long months 39 days to turn my ways around
|
| I got an 18 wheeler and a worn out dog
|
| And I ain’t got nothing to say to the law
|
| I got 10 more miles and I’m hittin' that county line
|
| And I ain’t got no more worries on my mind

| Well my worn out jeans didn’t fit no more
|
| Had long hair on my back
|
| I guess that’s not the best 'pearance
|
| To that judge in black
|
| So he picked up his pen and he put me away
|
| For a little stretch of time
|
| I said 7 long months 39 days and never did a crime
