Judge Boushay Blues Songtext

von Furry Lewis

Good morning judge, what may be my fine?
Good morning judge, what may be my fine?
Good morning judge, what may be my fine?
Fifty dollars eleven twenty-nine
They arrest me for murder and I ain't never harmed a man
Arrest me for murder and I ain't never harmed a man
Arrest me for forgery and I can't even sign my name
Arrest me for murder and I ain't hurt a man
Arrest me for murder and I ain't harmed a man
Arrest Furry for forgery and he can't even sign his name
Some got six months, some got a solid year
Some got six months, some got a solid year
But me and my partner we got lifetime here
If I just had-a known I was goin' to get so long
If I just had-a known I was goin' to get so long
Boy if I just had-a known I was goin' to get so long
Some Western country would have been my home
Western country would have been my home
Western country would have been my home
I know my baby she don't know I'm here
I know my baby she don't know I'm here
Boy my baby she don't know I'm here
If she do she sure don't feel my care
