Waylon Jennings And Johnny Cash There Ain't No Good Chain Gang Lyrics
[Verse 1: Waylon Jennings]
I'll bet it ain't a-rainin' back homei bet your sister's still on the phone
I bet mama's in the kitchen, cooking fried chicken
Wishing that I hadn't done wrong

[Verse 2: Johnny Cash]
Don't you worry about us none now, mama
Everything's gonna be all right, mama
They're teaching us a lot of new things in here, mama
Things like

[Chorus: Johnny Cash and Waylon Jennings]
There ain't no good in an evil-hearted woman
And I ain't cut out to be no Jesse James
And you don't go writin' hot cheques, down in Mississippi
And there ain't no good chain gang

[Verse 3: Waylon Jennings]
Papa's readin' yesterday's mail
Wishin' that the hay was all bailed
I'll bet he's a-wishin' he could go fishin'
And here I am a-laying in jail

[Verse 4: Johnny Cash]
Don't you worry about us now, Papa
They're teaching us a lesson a day, we're learning pretty well, too
We've already learned a whole lot of stuff already
Things like

[Chorus: Johnny Cash and Waylon Jennings]
There ain't no good in an evil-hearted woman
And I ain't cut out to be no Jesse James
And you don't go writin' hot cheques, down in Mississippi
And there ain't no good chain gang
There ain't no good in an evil-hearted woman
And I ain't cut out to be no Jesse James
And you don't go writin' hot cheques, down in Mississippi
And there ain't no good chain gang

[KeeGan]

Only if I'd learned at a younger age that I wasn't cut out to be Jesse James

[rhobodub]

There ain’t no good chain gang but Waylon and Johnny.

[heidimountain]

This looks like one of the awards shows that was taped at Grand Ole Opry House, possibly the CMA Awards.

[derrickmurphy]

[daltoncombs]

Waylon was hands down the best guitar player ever

[motorcitymadman]

I miss this old world. To bad we got transported into a different dimension, a different world. Maybe we are hell.

[Lawrence-is]

It is one of the greatest songs of all time.

[shanehall]

[mech-a-redneck]

Are there any gen alpha watching or is it just me
