deep dark dungeon

Singer:jj cale

i knew a man

made a heavy move

he shot his wife

his best friend too

they put him away in a deep dark dungeon

where the sun don't never shine

i knew a woman

had a jealous mind

she got a man

she caught him lying

they put her away in a deep dark dungeon

where the sun don't never shine

a friend of mine

he got five years

for selling dope and bootleg beers

they put him away in a deep dark dungeon

where the sun don't never shine

oh

sleepy john had one vice

he liked to cheat at cards and dice

they put him away in a deep dark dungeon

where the sun don't never shine
