Em                                 E 
I woke up on a cement floor this mornin, 
    Em                                  E 
My head felt like somebody been walkin' on it, 
  A 
Don't know how I got here, 
         E 
Don't remember nothin' at all,

But if I done all the things that they say I did,

From the Tupelo County line,

Shirts tore, my shoes got a big hole in it,

There's a king size knot on the side of my head 
       E 
And I got one big black eye
