Judge Bouche

Lyrics

Good morning judge, what may be my fine? Good morning judge, what may be my fine? Fifty dollars eleven twenty-nine They arrest me for murder, I ain't harmed a man Arrest me for murder, I ain't harmed a man One was screaming murder, ain't raised my hand I ain't got nobody, get me out on bond I ain't got nobody, get me out on bond I would not mind but I done nothing wrong "Please, Judge, make it light as you possibly can" I said, "Please, Judge, make it light as you possibly can I ain't been nowhere, Judge, Lord, I don't know when" My woman come runnin' with a hundred dollars in her hand My woman come runnin' with a hundred dollars in her hand Cryin' "Judge, Judge, please spare my man" "One hundred won't do, better run and get you three One hundred won't do, better run and get you three That will keep your man from the penitentiary"
