Louisiana Stripes

A D A I've got those Louisiana stripes and they're always chaining me down A E A I'm in debt for 99 years for shootin' my wife to the ground A D A Well, she had to love my friend and that's not right with me A E A So I grabbed my gun, shot em both in the head and then I threw their ass in the creek D A Now, I'm doin' my time E A in this Louisiana pen D A Thinkin' 'bout maybe bein' free E A on the day that I'm a dead man Well, it took some time gettin' used to, being locked in this prison cell But I always hum those tunes of George Jones to help me through my days of hell I've done me 25 years and that's alright with me cause I've got me a lotta, damn good friends in this Louisiana penitentiary Now, I'm doin' my time in this Louisiana pen Thinkin' 'bout maybe bein' free on the day I'll be walkin' to feel that fire of the Louisiana penitentiary
