Chords

[Verse 1]
                  G
I got in a little trouble, at the county seat
Lord, they put me in the jailhouse
            D       G
For loafing on the street

                     G
Well, the judge said guilty
He made his point He said forty-five dollars
           D           G
Or thirty days in the joint
[Chorus]
             C                      G
That'll be cash on the barrelhead, hun

                     D
You can take your choice

               G
You're twenty-one

          C
No money down

           G
No credit plan

             D
No time to chase you

                    G
Because I'm a busy man
[Instrumental] C G D G C G D G [Verse 2]
                    G
I found a telephone number, on a laundry slip
I had a good-hearted jailor
        D       G
With a six gun hip

                    G
He let me call long distance
She said, "Number, please" And just as soon as I told her
             D      G
She shouted back at me
[Chorus]
                 C                       G
Said that'll be cash, on the barrelhead, hun

               D
Not part, not half

                G
But the entire sum

          C
No money down

           G
No credit line

                       D
Because a little boy tells me

                      G
You're the traveling kind
[Verse 3]
                   G
Thirty days in the jailhouse
Four days on the road I was feeling mighty hungry
D                G
My feet, a heavy load

                  G
I saw a Greyhound coming
Stuck out my thumb As soon as I was seated
D                    G
The driver caught my arm
[Chorus]
                  C                      G
Said that'll be cash on the barrelhead, hun

      D                          G
This old grey dog, gets paid to run

                  C
When the engine starts

                     G
And the wheels will roll

                       D
Give me cash on the barrelhead

                    G
I take ya down the road

                    D
Ohh, cash on the barrelhead

                      G   C  G
I take you down the road
