It's a long old time in a hard rock jail It's a long old time gone by It's a long old time I've laid in jail And I've still got ninety-nine You see I set myself in a gambling game And I couldn't half-play my hand I was thinking about that woman I loved Run away with another man Run away with another man Run away with another man I was thinking about that woman I loved Run away with another man The cards come round the table Oh that's such a worried mind My stack of gold I've wasted away And I lost 'bout ninety-nine I lost 'bout ninety-nine I lost 'bout ninety-nine My stack of gold I've wasted away And I lost 'bout ninety-nine I walked into the hot shop boys I got me a big .44 I was thinking 'bout that woman I loved That I'd never see no more That I'd never see no more That I'd never see no more I was thinking 'bout that woman I loved That I'd never see no more It wasn't long till I'd seen 'em again He ran away, left her behind I'd laid 'em low with my old .44 And the judge gave me ninety-nine The judge gave me ninety-nine The judge gave me ninety-nine I'd laid 'em low with my old .44 And the judge gave me ninety-nine The jury said he'll have to pay The clerk he look around at me No, judge he spoke my number, Lord Two sixes upside down Two sixes upside down Two sixes upside down The mean old judge, he called my number, Lord Two sixes upside down It's a long old time in a hard rock jail It's a long old time gone by It's a long old time I've laid in jail And I've still got ninety-nine It's a long old time in a hard rock jail It's a long old time gone by It's a long old time I've laid in jail And I've still got ninety-nine Two sixes upside down Two sixes upside down
