Intro (G) (C)

(C) I got in a little trouble at the county seat 
Lord, they put me in the jailhouse 
For loafing (G) on the (C) street 
Well, the judge said guilty 
He made his point 
He said forty-five dollars 
Or thirty (G) days in the (C) joint 

That'll be (F) cash on the barrelhead, (C) hon 
You can take your (G) choice 
You're twenty (C) one 
No money (F) down 
No credit (C) plan
No time to (G) chase you
Cause I'm a busy (C) man

Instrumental break
NOTE:
-Follow the pattern of the six lines below marked with * 
-The /// simply mean do three quick down-strums on (C) at that spot 
-Then start normal strumming (C) at the word ‘arm'

(C) I found a telephone number on a laundry slip 
I had a good, hardy jailor 
With a (G) six gun (C) hip 
He let me call long distance 
She said, "Number, please" 
And just as soon as I told her 
She shouted (G) back at (C) me 

Said that'll be (F) cash on the barrelhead, (C) hon 
Not part, not (G) half 
But the entire (C) sum 
No money (F) down 
No credit (C) line 
Cause a little boy (G) tells me 
You're the travelin' (C) kind 

Instrumental (F) (C) (G) (C) 

(C) Thirty days in the jailhouse 
Four days on the road 
I was feelin' mighty hungry 
My feet, a (G) heavy (C) load 
*I saw a Greyhound comin' ///
*STUCK OUT MY THUMB /// 
*AS SOON AS I WAS SEATED ///
*THE DRIVER CAUGHT MY arm 

*Said that'll be (F) cash on the barrelhead, (C) hon 
*This old grey (G) dog gets paid to (C) run 
When the engine (F) starts 
And the wheels will (C) roll 
Give me cash on the (G) barrelhead 
I take you down the (C) road 

Oh-ye-(F)-oh-oh-ye-oh-ye-ea-ea-ea-oh-(C)-oh
Cash on the (G) barrelhead 
I take you down the (C) road
