Lyrics I Got Stripes - Johnny Cash
On
a
Monday,
I
was
arrested
(uh
huh)
On
a
Tuesday,
they
locked
me
in
the
jail
(oh
boy)
On
a
Wednesday,
my
trial
was
attested
On
a
Thursday,
they
said
guilty
and
the
Judge's
gavel
fell
I
got
stripes,
stripes
around
my
shoulders
I
got
chains,
chains
around
my
feet
I
got
stripes,
stripes
around
my
shoulders
And
them
chains,
them
chains,
They're
about
to
drag
me
down
On
a
Monday,
got
my
striped
britches
On
a
Tuesday,
got
my
ball
and
chain
On
a
Wednesday,
I'm
working
digging
ditches
On
a
Thursday,
Lord,
I
begged
them
not
to
knock
me
down
again
I
got
stripes,
stripes
around
my
shoulders
I
got
chains,
chains
around
my
feet
I
got
stripes,
stripes
around
my
shoulders
And
them
chains,
them
chains,
They're
about
to
drag
me
down
On
a
Monday,
my
momma
come
to
see
me
On
a
Tuesday,
they
caught
me
with
a
file
On
a
Wednesday,
I'm
down
in
solitary
On
a
Thursday,
Lord,
I
start
on
bread
and
water
for
a
while
I
got
stripes,
stripes
around
my
shoulders
I
got
chains,
chains
around
my
feet
I
got
stripes,
stripes
around
my
shoulders
And
them
chains,
them
chains,
They're
about
to
drag
me
down
