[00:09.28]Come to the door Ma, and unlock the chain
[00:17.63]I was just passin’ through and got caught in the rain
[00:26.40]There’s nothing I want, nothin’ that you need say
[00:34.46]Just let me lie down for a while and I’ll be on my way¡

[00:43.41]I was no more than a kid when you put me on the Southern Queen
[00:52.17]With the police on my back I fled to New Orleans
[01:01.63]I fought in the dockyards and with the money I made

[03:02.64]I fought for the men in their silk suits to lay down their bets
[03:11.21]I took my good share Ma, I have no regrets
[03:17.92]
[03:19.00]Then I took the fix at the state armory with big John McDowell
[03:28.62]From high in the rafters I watched myself fall
[03:36.60]As he raised his arm my stomach twisted and the sky it went black
[03:45.50]I stuffed my bag with their good money and I never looked back
