Junco Partner LyricsWay down the road
Came a poor little junco
He was loaded as can be
He was knocked out
Knocked out and loaded
But he was singing
This song to me

Well, he said six month's
That ain't no sentence
He said one year
That ain't no time
I know boys
Boys in Angola
But doing one year out of 99
When the poor boy had (When the poor boy had)
Plenty of money (Plenty of money)
He had friends (He had friends)
All over town (All over the town)
Well, now he's broke down
Broke down and busted
And there ain't no
Friends to be found

Well, the poor boy pawn
His silver pistol
So he could buy
Buy a diamond ring
So he could wed
The woman he was loving
But that poor girl
Wouldn't sign her name

Said give him whiskey (Give him whiskey)
When he gets thirsty (When he gets thirsty)
Give him water (Give him water)
When he gets dry (When he gets dry)
Give him attention
When he gets sickly
Give him a graveyard
Oh, when he dies
Yeah, down the road
Came a Junco Partner
He was loaded, loaded as can be
When he was knocked out
Knocked out and loaded
But he was singing
This song to me
Yeah, he was singing
This song to me
