Chorus 1

Down the road came a Junco Partner, For he was loaded as can be
He was knocked out, knocked out loaded, He was a-wobblin' all over the street

Verse 1

Singing six months ain't no sentence, And one year ain't no time
I was born in Angola, Serving fourteen to ninety-nine

Verse 2

Well, I wish I had me one million dollars, Oh, one million to call my own (all my own)
I would raise meat and say, "grow for me baby", I would raise me a tobacco farm

Verse 3

Take a walk, take a walk... Junco Partner... Hey, don't bother me
That... Like that  

Verse 4

Well, when I had me a great deal of money, Yeah, I had mighty good things all over town
Now I ain't got no more money, All of my good friends keep putting me down

Verse 5

So now I gotta gotta pawn my ratchet and pistol, Yeah I'm gonna pawn my watch and chain, chain, chain
I would have pawned my sweet Gabriella, But the smart girl she wouldn't sign her name

Verse 6

Down the road, down the road, Came a Junco Partner, Boy, he was loaded as I've ever seen
He was knocked out, knocked out lordy-lordy-lordy-lord, He was a-wobblin' all over the street, so

Verse 7

Take a walk... I can't walk 
Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Chorus 2

Down the road came a Junco Partner "Hey, mister" He called out to me
And it was... three things he shouted, Singing, singing, picking, Gotta catch you with gold

Verse 8

Ow! Junco Partner  
Jeez  

Verse 9

Well, I'm down, yes I'm getting thirsty, Pour me a mighty good beer when I'm dry
Just, just give me whisky, when I'm thirsty, Give me headstone when I die

Outro

Down the road...
