Blackjack County Chains (исполнитель: Willie Nelson & Waylon Jenning)
I was sittin' beside the road in Blackjack County Not knowing that the sheriff paid a bounty For men like me who didn't have a penny to their names So he locked my leg to thirty-five pounds of Blackjack County chain All we had to eat was bread and water Each day we had to build that road a mile and a quarter Black sneak whip would cut our backs when some poor [bad word] But we couldn't fight back wearin' 35 pounds of Blackjack County chain And then one night while the sheriff was a sleepin' We all gathered round him slowly creepin' And heaven help me to forget that night in the cold cold rain When we beat him death with thirty-five pounds of Blackjack County chain Now the whip marks have all healed and I am thankful That there's nothing but a scar round my ankle Most of all I'm glad no man will be a slave again To a black sneak whip and thirty-five pounds of Blackjack County chain To a black sneak whip and thirty-five pounds of Blackjack County chain
