《I Washed My Hands in Muddy Water》歌词

[00:00:01] I Washed My Hands in Muddy Water - Stonewall Jackson

[00:00:09] I was born in Macon Georgia

[00:00:15] They kept my dad in the Macon jail

[00:00:20] Dad said son if you keep your hands clean

[00:00:27] You won't hear them bloodhounds on your trail

[00:00:32] But I fell in with bad companions we robbed a man in Tennessee

[00:00:44] The sheriff caught me way up in Nashville

[00:00:50] They locked me up and threw away the key

[00:00:56] I washed my hands in muddy water

[00:01:02] Washed my hands but they didn't come clean

[00:01:08] Tried to do like daddy told me but

[00:01:14] I must have washed my hands in a muddy stream

[00:01:20] I asked the jailor when's

[00:01:23] My time up he said son we won't forget

[00:01:31] And if you try to keep

[00:01:35] Your hands clean we may make a good man of you yet

[00:01:43] I couldn't wait to do my sentence

[00:01:49] I broke out of the Nashville jail

[00:01:55] I just crossed the line of Georgia and

[00:02:02] I can hear them bloodhounds on my trail

[00:02:07] I washed my hands in muddy water

[00:02:12] Washed my hands but they didn't come clean

[00:02:18] Tried to do like daddy told me but

[00:02:25] I must have washed my hands in a muddy stream
