When you come through Pinebluff- You better ride on by- When you get to Aberdeen- You better rise and fly! 'Cause the cops will get you- They'll run you down- And when they get you- You're Carthage bound! Cornbread and molasses- Thrown in your face- When you see that judge- He said 30 days! With a pick and shovel- Put in your hand- When you get out- You're just a worn out man! So stay out of Pinebluff- They'll run you down- And when they get you- You're Carthage bound!
