Notes:A Johnny Cash prison song full of rhythm and rebellion.

 

On a DMonday, I was Aarrested.

On a Tuesday, they locked me in the Djail.

On a Wednesday, my trial was Aattested.

On a Thursday they said guilty and the judge's gavel Dfell.

 

Chorus

I got stripes, stripes around my Ashoulders.

I got chains, chains around my Dfeet.

I got stripes, stripes around my Ashoulders,

and them chains them chains are about to drag me Ddown.

 

On a DMonday, I got my Astripy britches,

On a Tuesday, got my ball and Dchain.

On a Wednesday, I'm workin diggin' Aditches,

On a Thursday, Lord I'd begged them not to knock me down Dagain

 

Chorus

I got stripes, stripes around my Ashoulders.

I got chains,chains around my Dfeet.

I got stripes, stripes around my Ashoulders,

and them chains them chains are about to drag me Ddown.

 

On a DMonday, my mama come to Asee me.

On a Tuesday, they caught me with a Dfile.

On a Wednesday, I'm down in Asolitary.

On a Thursday, Lord I start on bread and water for a Dwhile.

 

Chorus

I got stripes, stripes around my Ashoulders.

I got chains,chains around my Dfeet.

I got stripes, stripes around my Ashoulders,

and them chains them chains are about to drag me Ddown.

 

Chorus

I got stripes, stripes around my Ashoulders.

I got chains,chains around my Dfeet.

I got stripes, stripes around my Ashoulders,

and them chains them chains are about to drag me Ddown.
