Good Morning, Judge

Good Morning, Judge:



by Furry Lewis, who died in Memphis on this date in 1981 at the age of 88.

lyrics excerpt:
Good morning judge, what may be my fine?
Good morning judge, what may be my fine?
Fifty dollars, eleven twenty-nine

They 'rest me for murder, I ain't harmed a man
'Rest me for murder, I ain't harmed a man
Women hollerin' murderer, Lord I ain't raised my hand
