I'm going down this road feeling bad
i'm going down this road feeling bad
i'm going down this road feeling bad, lord, lord
and i ain't a-gonna be treated this a-way
Down in the jailhouse on my knees
down in the jailhouse on my knees
down in the jailhouse on my knees, great god
and i ain't a-gonna be treated this a-way
* refrain
They feed me on corn bread and beens
they feed me on corn bread and beens
they feed me on corn bread and beens, o lord
and i ain't a-gonna be treated this a-way
* refrain
I ain't got no shoes on my feet
i ain't got no shoes on my feet
i ain't got no shoes on my feet, lord god
and i ain't a-gonna be treated this a-way
* refrain
It takes a ten dollar shoe to fit my foot
it takes a ten dollar shoe to fit my foot
it takes a ten dollar shoe to fit my foot, great god
and i ain't a-gonna be treated this a-way
* refrain
I'm going where the climate suits my clothes
i'm going where the climate suits my clothes
i'm going where the climate suits my clothes, o lord
and i ain't a-gonna be treated this a-way
* refrain
I'm goin' if i never get back
i'm goin' if i never get back
i'm goin' if i never get back, lord god
and i ain't a-gonna be treated this a-way
* refrain
