[Intro]
A one, two, three, four

[Verse 1]
Busted in Austin, a-walkin' around in a daze
I'm sittin' in a slammer, lookin' out through these bars in a haze
But it'll all clear up, eleven months and twenty-nine days

[Verse 2]
Keep the Lone Star cold, the dance floor hot while I'm gone
Keep the Lone Star cold, the dance floor hot while I'm gone
Hey now
Keep your hands off my woman, I ain't gon' be gone that long

[Break]
Let me hear that harmonica over there, here it comes now
Little steel guitar here
Alright, bring on them fiddles, boys

[Verse 3]
That old judge put a sledgehammer in my hand when he said
I'm gonna send you to Huntsville, shave your face and your head
I'm doin' 11/29, boys, with a cement floor for my bed

[Outro]
Busted in Austin, a-walkin' around in a daze
Yes, I was
Now I'm sittin' in a slammer, lookin' out the bars through a haze
But it'll all clear up, eleven months and twenty-nine days
Hey, Lord
