F C
Open the gates up hey screw did you miss me
G
Jimmy, I see that you found a new friend
F C
Warden come down here and kiss me hello
G C
cause I'm back home in Huntsville again
[Verse]
F C
This suit that I'm wearing cost two hundred dollars
G
But I got it free with a three dollar knife
C F C
I got tailor-made shirts with them long pointy collars
G C
And all it's gonna cost is ten years of my life
[Chorus]
F C
Open the gates up hey screw did you miss me
G
Jimmy, I see that you found a new friend
F C
Warden come down here and kiss me hello
G C
cause I'm back home in Huntsville again
[Verse]
F C
I've been rousted and turned out at three in the morning
G
I've been roughed up and shook down and stood on my ear
F C
I've tried to find work but they called me a jailbird
G
So I went for the bundle and I've wound up back here
[Chorus]
F C
Open the gates up hey screw did you miss me
G
Jimmy, I see that you found a new friend
F C
Warden come down here and kiss me hello
G C
cause I'm back home in Huntsville again
[Verse]
F C
I found me a woman as warm as the sunshine
G
took her a year to slip out of her dress
C F C
She talked about havin' a little rose-covered cottage
G C
But roses cost money and you know the rest
[Chorus]
F C
Open the gates up hey screw did you miss me
G
Jimmy, I see that you found a new friend
F C
Warden come down here and kiss me hello
G C
cause I'm back home in Huntsville again
G C
Yes I'm back home in Huntsville again
