From `I Would Like to See You Again`, 1978, Columbia Records.
Bet it ain`t rainin` back home,
Bet your sister`s still on the phone.
Bet Momma`s in the kitchen, cooking fried chicken,
Wishing that I hadn`t done wrong.
Yeah, Momma, don`t you worry about it none though,
Everything`s gonna be all right, Momma.
They`re teaching us a lot of new things in here, Momma;
Things like:
There ain`t no good in an evil-hearted woman.
And I ain`t cut out to be no Jesse James.
And you don`t go writin` hot cheques, down in Mississippi.
And there ain`t no good chain gang.
Papa`s readin` yesterday`s mail,
Wishin` that the hay was all baled.
I bet he`s a-wishin`, we could go fishin`.
And here I am a-laying in jail.
Well, Papa, don`t you worry about it none now,
Everything`s gonna be all right, Papa;
They`re teaching us a lesson a day; we`re learning pretty well, too.
We`ve already learned a whole lot of stuff already;
Things like:
There ain`t no good in an evil-hearted woman.
And I ain`t cut out to be no Jesse James.
And you don`t go writin` hot cheques, down in Mississippi.
And there ain`t no good chain gang.
There ain`t no good in an evil-hearted woman.
And I ain`t cut out to be no Jesse James.
And you don`t go writin` hot cheques, down in Mississippi.
And there ain`t no good chain gang.
There ain`t no good in an evil-hearted woman.
And I ain`t cut out to be no Jesse James.
And you don`t go writin` hot cheques, down in Mississippi.
And there ain`t no good chain gang.
