Cash on the Barrelhead Lyrics

	CASH ON THE BARRELHEAD
	(Charlie Louvin - Ira Louvin)
	" © '56 Acuff-Rose Music "
	Got in a little trouble at the county seat
	Lord they put me in the jailhouse for loafing on the street
	When the judge heard the verdict I was a guilty man
	He said forty five dollars or thirty days in the can
	That'll be cash on the barrelhead son you can make your choice you're twenty one
	No money down no credit plan no time to chase you cause I'm a busy man
	Found a telephone number on a laundry slip
	I had a good hearted jailer with a six gun hip
	He let me call long distance she said number please
	And no sooner than I told her she shouted out at me
	That'll be cash on the barrelhead son not parting cash but the entire sum
	No money down no credit plan cause a little bird tells me you're a travelling man
	Thirty days in the jailhouse four days on the road
	I was feeling mighty hungry my feet a heavy load
	Saw a greyhound coming stuck up my thumb
	Just as I was being seated the driver caught my arm
	That'll be cash on the barrelhead son this old grey dog is paid to run
	When the engine stops and the wheels won't roll
	Give me cash on the barrelhead I'll take you down the road

	CASH ON THE BARRELHEAD
