i wonder how long 'til i can change my clothes - charlie parr lyrics

[verse 1]
well, i put my money down for half a day
you know ‘dem, half a’ these women will not let me be
and now i, i stole a car and headed for new orleans
and i got close to halfway there and i ran out of gasoline

[verse 2]
walkin’ alone, no, on the side a’ the road now
now and up behind me come the highway patrol
now i, i don’t think i seen you ’round here before
and he took my shoes away and he locked the door

[chorus]
now it’s twenty*five years left to carry my load
i ain’t gonna see my wife no more
captain says that i can’t go home
and i wonder how long ’til i can change my clothes

[verse 3]
well, fell in my cell, had some homemade gin
and i swear to the good lord above i’ll never touch it again
and now a fight broke out, i had blood on my chin
when the captain came runnin’, one more broke my hand

[verse 4]
and i asked the judge, “when can i go home?”
he said, “twenty*five years more sho’ won’t hurt you none”
now he put me on a bus headed for the county farm
when the train whistle blows heads a thousand miles from my home
[chorus]
and it’s twenty*five years left to carry my load
i ain’t gonna see my wife no more
captain says that i can’t go home
and i wonder how long ’til i can change my clothes

[verse 4]
and i asked the judge, “when can i go home?”
he said, “twenty*five years more won’t hurt you none”
and now he put me on a bus headed for the county farm
and the train whistle blows heads a thousand miles from my home

[chorus]
and it’s twenty*five years left to carry my load
i ain’t gonna see my wife no more
captain says that i can’t go home
and i wonder how long ’til i can change my clothes
