Huntsville — текст песни (Merle Haggard)

That old white haired judge in Dallas
Didn`t pay my story no mind
They`re takin` me down to Huntsville
I`m bringin` in a load of time

They caught me on a caper that I planned for days
And proved everything I done
I`m on my way to Huntsville
Bt I`m looking for a chance to run

My hands don`t fit no choppin` pole
And cotton never was my beg
The men better keep both eyes on me
Or they`re gonna lose old Hag

Hey there ain`t so far to Mexico
There I can find my way
They`re takin` me down to Huntsville
But I`m not gonna stay

They got me chain and leg irons
I guess they got a good excuse
They know I`m gonna run the first chance
I get cause they never gonna cut me loose

And I really don`t care if they shoot me down
I`ll never be free again
I`ve got two long life turns to do
Both runnin` in the end

Hey there ain`t so far to Mexico
There I can find my way
They`re takin` me down to Huntsville
But I`m not gonna stay
