Todd Snider - Hays County Jailhouse Blues

I wish time would fly like a hawk on the wind
Burning through the sky like a dynamite fuse
The faster time goes by the sooner I ain't got to sing these
These county jailhouse blues

[spoken]

Old Reuben robbed a liquor store
And Jesse killed a man
Raul he's doing time for murder too
I didn't have my seatbelt on so we're all here in the can
We've got the Hays County Jailhouse blues
