Boston Jail - Porter Wagoner

Wino Skid Row Joe some on vegranci

They’ve got all kinds in the Boston jail now they’ve got me

In the county jail in old Boston they’ve got all kinds you see

From all walks of life they come all lost their liberty

Now some got wives just outside a waitin' for their return

Long timers short timers and some a waitin' to burn

Wino Skid Row Joe some on vegranci

They’ve got all kinds in the Boston jail now they’ve got me

Now some will say yesterday I really had the jack

But paper and pen got me locked in them checks come a bouncin' back

And late at night when the lights go out they tell their tales of voe

About old friends and places they’ve been and where they’d like to go

Wino Skid Row Joe some on vegranci

They’ve got all kinds in the Boston jail now they’ve got me

But it’s too late that one mistake condemns them to a cell

Where every dream’s a forgotten thing and each day’s a living hell

Listen guys if you’re wise from this town you’ll run

Or soon you’ll find you’re a pullin' time in the jail in old Boston

Wino Skid Row Joe some on vegranci

They’ve got all kinds in the Boston jail now they’ve got me

Wino Skid Row Joe some on vegranci

They’ve got all kinds in the Boston jail now they’ve got me
