Way downtown just fooling around They took me to the jail Oh me and it’s oh my No one to go my bail It was late last night when Willie came home I heard him a-rapping on the door He’s a slipping and a sliding with them new shoes on Momma said Willie don’t you rap no more Way downtown just fooling around They took me to the jail Oh me and it’s oh my No one to go my bail I wish I was over at my sweet Sally’s house Sitting in that big armed chair One arm around this old guitar And the other one around my dear Way downtown just fooling around They took me to the jail Oh me and it’s oh my No one to go my bail Now it?s one old shirt is bout all that I got And a dollar is all that I crave I brought nothing with me into this old world Ain’t gonna take nothing to my grave Way downtown just fooling around They took me to the jail Oh me and it’s oh my No one to go my bail
