[Intro]

[Verse 1]

I stole a rag top Cadillac,

going home I had to cross the tracks.

Train was coming when the engine died.

I jumped out and watched the two colide.

I barely had the time to save my hide.

Can't even do wrong right.

[Verse 2]

Without a dime at 35, I have up on the good life.

Bb F

I robbed a bank with my .45, I was headed for the border line.

When my gas tank went bone dry.

Can't even do wrong right.

[Chorus]

Bb F

Back where I come from, well they call it hard luck.

G C

But that judge of mine, just called it hard time.

[Solo]

Bb F Bb C C C C

[Verse 3]

I'm payin' my dues doing time,

the wardens teaching me to walk the line.

But temptation he's a friend of mine,

he found us a fence to climb.

But then the spot light robbed us blind.

Can't even do wrong right.

[Chorus]

Bb F

Back where I come from, well they call it hard luck.

G C

But that judge of mine, just called it hard time.

[Outro]
