Billy Strings
Way Downtown
[Chorus]
Way downtown, foolin' around
Took me to the jail
It's oh me, it's oh my
Ain't no one to go my bail

[Verse 1]
It was late last night when ol' Willie come home
I heard him a-rappin' on the door
He's a-slippin' and a-slidin' with them new shoes on
Papa said, "Willie, don't you rap no more"

[Chorus]
Way downtown, foolin' around
Took me to the jail
It's oh me, it's oh my
Ain't no one to go my bail (Get her, Michael)

[Verse 2]
Well, I wish I was over at my sweet Sally's house
Sittin' in that big armchair
One arm around my old guitar
And the other one around my dear

[Chorus]
Way downtown, foolin' around
Took me to the jail
It's oh me and it's oh my
Ain't no one to go my bail
[Verse 3]
Well, it's one old shirt, it's about all I've got
And a dollar is all I crave
I brought nothin' with me into this old world
Ain't takin' nothin' to my grave

[Chorus]
Way downtown, foolin' around
Took me to the jail
It's oh me and it's oh my
Ain't no one to go my bail (Let's hear that banjo)

[Chorus]
Way downtown, foolin' around
Took me to the jail
Oh me and it's oh my
Ain't no one to go my bail
