charley crockett – blackjack county chain lyrics
i was standin’ beside the road in blackjack county
not knowing the sheriff paid a bounty
for men like me who didn’t have a penny to our names
so he locked my leg to thirty+five pounds of blackjack county chain
and all we had to eat was bread and water
and each day we had to build that road a mile and a quarter
a black snake whip would cut our backs if some poor fool complained
and you couldn’t fight back wearin’ thirty+five pounds of blackjack county chain
and then one night when the sheriff was a+sleepin’
we gathered all around him slowly creepin’
heaven help me to forget that night in the cold, cold rain
when we beat him to death with thrity+five pounds of blackjack county chain
now the whip marks have all healed and i am thankful
that there’s nothing but these scars around my ankles
but most of all i’m glad no man will be a slave again
to a black snake whip and thirty+five pounds of blackjack county chain
to a black snake whip and thirty+five pounds of blackjack county chain
blackjack county chain
