Testo I Got Stripes - Johnny Cash
Testo della canzone I Got Stripes (Johnny Cash), tratta dall'album The Essential Johnny Cash (1955-1983)
On a Monday I was arrested
On a Tuesday they locked me in the jail
On a Wednesday my trial was attested
On a Thursday they said guilty and the judge's gavel fell
I got stripes, stripes around my shoulders
I got chains, chains around my feet
I got stripes, stripes around my shoulders
And them chains, them chains, they're 'bout to drag me down
On a Monday got my striped britches
On a Tuesday got my ball and chain
On a Wednesday I'm workin' diggin' ditches
On a Thursday, Lord, I begged 'em not to knock me down again
I got stripes, stripes around my shoulders
I got chains, chains around my feet
I got stripes, stripes around my shoulders
And them chains, them chains, they're 'bout to drag me down
On a Monday my momma come to see me
On a Tuesday they caught me with a file
On a Wednesday I'm down in solitary
On a Thursday, Lord, I start on bread and water for a while
I got stripes, stripes around my shoulders
I got chains, chains around my feet
I got stripes, stripes around my shoulders
And them chains, them chains, they're 'bout to drag me down
