letra de cocaine blues - w. a. nichol's western aces
[verse 1]
early one morning while makin’ the rounds
i took a shot of cocaine and i shot my baby down
i shot her down then i went to bed
i stuck that lovin’ forty-four beneath my head
[verse 2]
woke up next morning and i grabbed that gun
i took a shot of cocaine and away i run
made a good run but i run too slow
the overtook me down in juarez, mexico
[verse 3]
in the hot joint takin’ the pills
there walked the sheriff from jericho hill
[he said:] “w-lly lee your name is not jack brown
you’re the dirty hack that shot your woman down”
[verse 4]
yes, so my name’s is billy lee
if you’ve got a warrant you better read it to me
i shot her down ’cause she made me sore
i thought i was her daddy but she had five more
[verse 5]
when i was arrested i was dressed in black
they threw me on a freight train and hauled me back
had no friend who’d go my bail
they stuck my dried-up carc-ss in the county jail
[verse 6]
early next morning ’round half past nine
i saw the sheriff comin’ down the line
that sheriff yelled as he cleared his throat
said, “come on, you dirty hackin’ to the district court”
[verse 7]
into the courtroom, my trial began
where i was judged by twelve honest men
yes, as the jury started walkin’ out
i saw that little judge commence to look about
[verse 8]
in about five minutes then walked a man
holding the verdict in his right hand
the verdict read in the first degree
well i shouted “lordy, lordy, please have mercy on me”
[verse 9]
the judge he smiled when he picked up his pen
ninety-nine years in the san quentin penn
ninety-nine years underneath that ground
but i can’t forget that day i shot my woman down
[outro]
come all you hypes and listen unto me
drink all you want to, but let that cocaine be
