[E] [G#] [A] [E]
I got those [A] [E] Louisiana stripes, [A] [D] and they're always chaining me [E] down.
I'm in that four-time deer score, shooting my wife [A] to [E] the ground.
Well, she had to love my friend, [A] [Dm] and that's not right [A] with [E] me.
So I grabbed my gun, shot them both in the head, and then I threw their ass in the creek.
[A] [D] Now I'm doing [A] my [E] time in this Louisiana pen,
[A] [D] thinking about [A] maybe being free [E] on the day that I'm a [A] dead man.

Well, it took [A] some time getting used to [D] being locked in this prison [E] cell.
But I'm always on those tunes of Georgia Jones to help me through my days of hell.
I've done me 25 [A] years, [D] and that's all right [E] with me,
because I got me a lot of damn good friends in this Louisiana penitentiary.
[A] [C#] [D] Now I'm doing [A]
my time [E] in this [A] Louisiana pen,
[B] [D] thinking [A] about maybe [E] being free on the day I'll be walking to feel that fire of the Louisiana [F#] [A] penitentiary.
