Clark, Jr., Gary - Travis County Lyrics






Travis County took my picture
But no, I didn't smile
They told me I was gonna be here
For a pretty long while

One day I was walking down the street when
I should've been walking down the hall
Heard a voice calling out, saying
"Ooh, where you going, y'all?"

Now before I could've gathered my thoughts
I turned around and I saw the cops
I pointed arms up right when
He told me I better stop

Oooh, oooh

They put my hands in cuffs
Oh boy, they even locked me up
When I thought that it was all a bluff
Till they started taking my stuff

Now I'm sittin' 'round in my cell
Just a looking at the wall
I didn't even get to make
My one phone call

After I was just sittin' 'round
You know I started getting down
When they let me out
All I could do is scream and shout

    this song is catchy dude

  6. c.... ....

    I love this tune, but the bass player is destroying this version by playing too much. He's filling up all the holes, taking away the groove. Maybe that's why the crowd wasn't bopping along. (or maybe the PA sucked.) Listen to the version from the movie "Chef." Much simpler bass. Much better groove.

  7. M.... B....

    why is bonamassa playing the bass?

  8. J.... W....

    Y'all can find better crowd in Walmart
