LYRICS
Chorus:I’m going down that long lonesome road lord, lord
I’m going
down that long lonesome road
I’m going down that long lonesome road lord, lord
I ain’t gonna be treated this way
Well they
feed me on cornbread and beans
Well they feed me on cornbread and beans
The jailer don’t give me enough to eat lord, lord
I ain’t
gonna be treated this way
Chorus
Two dollar shoes on my feet
and that jailer don’t give me enough to eat
I got two
dollar shoes on my feet lord, lord
And I ain’t gonna be treated this way
Chorus
Well I’m going where those chilly winds
don’t blow
Going where those chilly winds don’t blow
Well I’m going where those chilly winds don’t blow lord, lord
I ain’t gonna
be treated this way
Chorus
I’m going where the water tastes like wine
Well I’m going where the water tastes like
wine
I’m going where the water tastes like wine lord, lord
I ain’t gonna be treated this way
Chorus
