Pecos Jail

[Verse 1]
I got in a fight in ol' Pecos town
And there I gunned a bigger bully down
A well the sheriff came a-running nobody set my bail
So they threw me back in to that Pecos jail

[Chorus]
Way down where the floor is cold and the walls are dark
And very little sun comes in
And the sheriff's daughter brings me bread and water
'Til I drop to a hundred and ten
But there's a funny little ending (Ooh), to this tale (Ooh)
I think my future's in the Pecos jail

[Verse 2]
We fell in love, the shеriff's daughter and me
One night littlе Suzy slipped me the key
Then she gave me a sweet kiss and I was San Antone bound
But my lips kept burning so I turned my horse around

[Chorus]
Back to where the floor is cold and the walls are dark
And very little sun comes in
And the sheriff's daughter brings me bread and water
'Til I drop to a hundred and ten
But there's a funny little ending (Ooh), to this tale (Ooh)
I think my heart's found a future here in the Pecos jail

[Verse 3]
Slipped back in that jailhouse into Suzy's arms
Even in this cold cell she made me feel kinda warm
It's a sweet little Suzy that I'm thinking of
And in this jailhouse I found my true love

[Chorus]
Way down where the floor is cold and the walls are dark
And very little sun comes in
And the sheriff's daughter brings me bread and water
'Til I drop to a hundred and ten
But there's a happy little ending (Ooh), to this tale (Ooh)
I think my future's here in the Pecos jail
Yeah, I found my future here in the Pecos jail
