Doin' My Time
Johnny Cash Sun Records 1957

(Fast Paced)

[E]ON THIS OLD ROCK PILE,
WITH A BALL AND CHAIN.
THEY CALL ME BY A NU[A]MER NOT A NAME,
LORD LORD I GOTTA DO MY TIME
I GOTTA DO MY TIME [E]
[B7]WITH AN ACHIN' HEART,
FOR THAT GAL OF MINE. [E]

WHEN THAT OL' JUDGE LOOKED DOWN AT ME,
HE SAID I'LL PUT YOU IN THE PENATENTARY.
LORD LORD I GOTTA DO MY TIME,
I GOTTA DO MY TIME
WITH AN ACHIN HEART FOR THAT GAL OF MINE

YOU CAN HEAR MY HAMMER YOU CAN HEAR MY SONG,
GOONA SING IT LIKE JOHN HENRY ALL DAY LONG.
LORD LORD I GOTTA DO MY TIME,
I GOTTA DO MY TIME
WITH AN ACHIN' HEART FOR THAT GAL OF MINE

NOW IT WONT BE LONG JUST A FEW MORE DAYS,
I'M GOONA GET OUTTA HEAR I'M GOONA STAY.
LORD LORD WITH THAT GAL OF MINE,
WITH THAT GAL OF MINE.
(SLOW BASS NOTE THEN CHORD)
[B7] SHE'S WAITED FOR ME
WHILE I'VE DONE MY TIME [E]
