Lyrics Jacob Green - Johnny Cash
Jacob
Green
got
busted
for
possession
Next
morning
early
he
appeared
in
court
But
he
was
sent
to
jail
to
wait
to
be
trialed
at
some
later
date
Next
morning
early,
there
came
a
sad
report
At
the
jail
they
took
away
his
clothes
to
shame
him
And
to
make
sure
Jacob
Green
had
no
pride
left
They
cut
of
all
his
hair
today
they
found
him
hanging
there
Afraid
to
face
the
day
he
killed
himself
It
happened
yesterday
and
if
you
turn
your
head
away
Somewhere
in
some
dirty
hole
the
scene
will
be
rerun
Not
only
Jacob
Green,
but
many
more
you've
never
seen
It
could
be
someone
that
you
love
gets
done
Like
Jacob
Green
got
done
It
could
be
someone
that
you
love
gets
done
Like
Jacob
Green
got
done
Jacob's
father
hired
a
team
of
lawyers
Inspections
and
long
inquiries
were
held
The
sheriff
then
retired
and
the
papers
said
two
guards
were
fired
They
put
a
brand
new
coat
of
paint
on
Jacob's
cell
But
like
a
tomb
that
looks
so
white
and
shiny
Inside
you'll
find
corruption
never
seen
And
somewhere
out
there
tonight
in
a
dirty
cell
without
a
light
There
will
be
locked
up
another
Jacob
Green
It
happened
yesterday
and
if
you
turn
your
head
away
Somewhere
in
some
dirty
hole
the
scene
will
be
rerun
Not
only
Jacob
Green,
but
many
more
you've
never
seen
It
could
be
someone
that
you
love
gets
done
Like
Jacob
Green
got
done
It
could
be
someone
that
you
love
gets
done
Like
Jacob
Green
got
done
