Eleven Twentynine Blues
Leroy Carr
She ain't good‑looking : but the good gal do go clean
And I'm crazy about my baby : though she is so mean
My gal got arrested : and they put her in the county jail
They fined her eleven twenty‑nine : and they even allowed her no bail
Now I'm going to see that judge : and talk to him myself
Tell him that he sent my gal to the county road : and left me by myself
Now I never felt so sorry : till the people walked down the lane
And my heart struck sorrow : when they called my good gal's name
And I heard the jailor say hello : prisoners all fall in line
I'm also talking about that long‑chain woman : that got eleven twenty‑nine
I've got the blues so bad : that I just can't rest
I'm going to ask that jailor : can I do my good gal's time myself
