Slackstring - Trouble Tambourine lyrics

Please grant my last request I really must confess I'm only in this mess Because of Tambourine She was the girl I knew Sweet as the morning dew In me she turned the screw And turned me loose We were so wild and proud Always caught hanging out One night we'd bring the town On that crazy juice We tasted every sin Til the law came crashing in Now I'm doing 9 - 10 In the county pen She was a wild gal With that hemp hanging down She took away my frown And made me sing the blues I was an honest man Until I met trouble tam She told me everything I told the tambourine Mr. Jailer Won't you set me free I'm only guilty Of loving Tambourine And if I ever do See blue skies someday I'm gonna hestitate To do it all again
