Bloodknot

I stole a car and I drove it too far

And they busted me down in Missouri

My trail had a judge but no jury

They put me away, hey, hey

They put me away for a year and a day

In the juvenile hall down at Bloodknot

And I learned it all down at Bloodknot

They put me away, hey, hey

Drunken old man with a stick in his hand

Tried to teach me the rules down at Bloodknot

And I played the fool down at Bloodknot

And counted the days, hey, hey

I'm makin' the grade, yes, I'm learning my trade

How to rob and to lie and to swindle

My chances continue to dwindle

Get worse everyday, hey, hey

I stole a car and I drove it too far

And I don't have a hope for tomorrow

I'm aimin' to beg, steal and borrow

They taught me the way, hey, hey

They taught me the way for a year and a day

At the juvenile hall down at Bloodknot

And I learned it all down at Bloodknot

They put me away, hey, hey
