Johnny Cash - There Ain't No Good Chain Gang

[Verse 1]

Bet it isn't raining back home

Bet your sister's still on the phone

Bet Mamma's in the kitchen, cooking fried chicken

Wishing that I hadn't done wrong

Yeah, Mamma, don't you worry about it none though

Everything's going to be all right, Mamma

They're teaching us a lot of new things in here Mamma

Things like

[Chorus]

There is no good in an evil-hearted woman

And I'm not cut out to be no Jesse James

And you don't go writing hot cheques down in Mississippi

And there is no good chain gang

[Verse 2]

Papa's reading yesterday's mail

Wishing that the hay was all baled

I bet he's wishing we could go fishing

And here I am laying in jail

Well, Papa, don't you worry about it none now

Everything's going to be all right, Papa

They're teaching us a lesson a day we're learning pretty well too

We've already learned a whole lot of stuff already

Things like

[Chorus x4]

There is no good in an evil-hearted woman

And I'm not cut out to be no Jesse James

And you don't go writing hot cheques down in Mississippi

And there is no good chain gang
