Stone County - Johnny Winter

I traveled forty miles of back wood

Running from the county man

Just broke from the Stone County Prison

And I’m never goin' back again

Gonna make my way from Stone County

Try to catch the Santa Fe

I can hear her whistle callin' me

Just a half a mile away

I left my home down in Texas

Seven long years ago

I remember my mom on my daddy’s arm

Sittin' in the back of lawn

I’m gonna run till I die from Stone County

Gotta catch the Santa Fe

I can hear her whistle callin' me

About a half a mile away

I’m a Stone County wanted man

I’m a Stone County wanted man

Well, I’m a wanted man, now in Texas

Even down Mexico way

Ya know they want me in Stone County Prison

But Lord, they’ll never see that day

I’m gonna make my way from Stone County

Try to catch the Santa Fe

Oh, I can hear her whistle callin' me

About a half a mile away

I’m a Stone County wanted man

I’m a Stone County wanted man

I’m a Stone County wanted man

I’m a Stone County wanted man

Stone county wanted man

I got a money, I gotta money

And I’m a Stone County, Stone County

Stone County wanted man

I’m wanted man, I’m wanted man

Gotta get away, gotta get away

Gotta get away, gotta get away

A Stone County, a Stone County
