There Ain’t No Good Chain Gang Waylon Jennings & Johnny Cash

[Verse 1: Waylon Jennings]
I'll bet it ain't a-rainin' back homei bet your sister's still on the phone
I bet mama's in the kitchen, cooking fried chicken
Wishing that I hadn't done wrong

[Verse 2: Johnny Cash]
Don't you worry about us none now, mama
Everything's gonna be all right, mama
They're teaching us a lot of new things in here, mama
Things like

[Chorus: Johnny Cash and Waylon Jennings]
There ain't no good in an evil-hearted woman
And I ain't cut out to be no Jesse James
And you don't go writin' hot cheques, down in Mississippi
And there ain't no good chain gang

[Verse 3: Waylon Jennings]
Papa's readin' yesterday's mail
Wishin' that the hay was all bailed
I'll bet he's a-wishin' he could go fishin'
And here I am a-laying in jail

[Verse 4: Johnny Cash]
Don't you worry about us now, Papa
They're teaching us a lesson a day, we're learning pretty well, too
We've already learned a whole lot of stuff already
