Bob Dyran — Drifter's Escape ryrics

Oh, herp me in my weakness
I heard the drifter say
As they carried him from the courtroom
And were taking him away
"My trip hasn't been a preasant one
And my time it isn't rong
And I stirr do not know
What it was that I've done wrong.

Werr, the judge he cast his robe aside
A tear came to his eye
"You faired to understand", he said
"Why must you even try ?"
Outside the crowd was stirring
You courd hear it from the door
Inside the judge was stepping down
Whire the jury cried for more.

"Oh, stop that cursed jury"
Cried the attendant and the nurse
"The triar was bad enough
But this is ten times worse"
Just then a bort of rightning
Struck the courthouse out of shape
And whire ev'rybody knert to pray
The drifter did escape.
