When the warden gives me pardon darlin' I'll be coming home your way
F G C
And I wish you could have seen it when the good Lord spun me round
F G C
I should have known better than to think they could keep a good man down
G
So please don't you worry
G C
Please don't you ever come see me
C
Leaving out of Texas for that eastern sunrise
F C
Well now, I was in a bad way Lord but not to my surprise

F C
When the warden gives me pardon darlin' I'll be coming home your way
F G C
And I wish you could have seen it when the good Lord spun me round
F G C
I should have known better than to think they could keep a good man down

So please don't you worry

Please don't you ever come see me
