C G C

Ooh, ooh

Travis County took my picture

But no, I didn't smile

They told me I was gonna be here

For a pretty long while

One day I was walking down the street when

I should've been walking down the hall

Heard a voiCe Calling out, saying

"Ooh, where you going, y'all?"

Now before I Could've gathered my thoughts

I turned around and I saw the Cops

Oh boy did my heart sure drop when

He told me I better stop

C G C

Ooh, ooh

Oh, they put my hands in Cuffs

Oh boy, they even locked me up

When I thought that it was all

Till they started taking all my stuff

Now I'm sittin' 'round in my Cell

Just a looking at the wall

I didn't even get to make

My one phone Call

After I was just sittin' 'round

You know I started getting down

When they let me out

All I Could do is sCream and shout

Ooh, ooh

(Till end)
