When you come through Pinebluff-
You better ride on by-
When you get to Aberdeen-
You better rise and fly!
'Cause the cops will get you-
They'll run you down-
And when they get you-
You're Carthage bound!
Cornbread and molasses-
Thrown in your face-
When you see that judge-
He said 30 days!
With a pick and shovel-
Put in your hand-
When you get out-
You're just a worn out man!
So stay out of Pinebluff-
They'll run you down-
And when they get you-
You're Carthage bound!
