VERSE:
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,
    F#
But if I done all the things that they say I did,
        B
Well I sure musta had a ball
 
 
CHORUS:
          A
Cause in 30 more days
 
I'm goin back home,
    E
To see that gal of mine,
         B
But the Wichita Jail
      B
Is a long long way
                        Dbm
From the Tupelo County line,
               B
I gotta do my time
 
 
VERSE:
        Em
Well I aint got a cent of the money I had
    E
I spent it
  Em                                  E
Shirts tore, my shoes got a big hole in it,
           A
There's a king size knot on the side of my head
       E
And I got one big black eye
      F#
But brother if you think I look bad,
             B
You oughtta see that other guy
 
 
CHORUS:
          A
Cause in 30 more days
 
I'm goin back home,
    E
To see that gal of mine,
         B
But the Wichita Jail
      B
Is a long long way
                        Dbm
From the Tupelo County line,
               B
I gotta do my time

VERSE:
           Em                                       E
Well this nine pound hammer feels like it weighs a ton
       Em                                             E
Makin lil ones outta big ones in this red hot Kansas sun
        A
I just hope I can make it 30 more days
     E
And get out of this mess I'm in,
    F#
And if I ever get back to Mississippi
   B
I aint ever gonna leave again
 
 
CHORUS:
          A
Cause in 30 more days
 
I'm goin back home,
    E
To see that gal of mine,
         B
But the Wichita Jail
      B
Is a long long way
                        Dbm
From the Tupelo County line,
 
 
OUTRO:
               B
I gotta do my time
               Dbm
I gotta do my time
               B
I gotta do my time
