Chorus:
Im going down that long lonesome road lord, lord
Im going down that long lonesome road
Im going down that long lonesome road lord, lord
I aint gonna be treated this way
Well they feed me on cornbread and beans
Well they feed me on cornbread and beans
The jailer dont give me enough to eat lord, lord
I aint gonna be treated this way
Chorus
Two dollar shoes on my feet
and that jailer dont give me enough to eat
I got two dollar shoes on my feet lord, lord
And I aint gonna be treated this way
Chorus
Well Im going where those chilly winds dont blow
Going where those chilly winds dont blow
Well Im going where those chilly winds dont blow lord, lord
I aint gonna be treated this way
Chorus
Im going where the water tastes like wine
Well Im going where the water tastes like wine
Im going where the water tastes like wine lord, lord
I aint gonna be treated this way
