Bet it ain't a-rainin' back home, Bet your sister's still on the phone, Bet mama's in the kitchen cookin' fried chicken Wishin' that I hadn't done wrong. Now don't you worry about it none, though, Everything's gonna be all right, mama. They're teachin' us a lot of new things in here, mama. Things like, There ain't no good in an evil-hearted woman, And I ain't cut out to be no Jessie Jane, And you don't go writin' hot checks down in Mississippi, And there ain't no good a-changin'. Papa's readin' yesterday's mail, Wishin' that the hay was all bale. I bet he's wishin' we could go fishin', And here I am layin' in jail. Well, Papa, don't you worry about it none, now, Everything's gonna be all right, Papa. They're teachin' us a lesson a day, We're learnin' pretty well, too. We've already learned a whole lot of stuff already.

There ain't no good in an evil-hearted woman, And I ain't cut out to be no Jessie Jane, And you don't go writin' hot checks down in Mississippi, And there ain't no good a-changin'. There ain't no good in an evil-hearted woman, And I ain't cut out to be no Jessie Jane, And you don't go writin' hot checks down in Mississippi, And there ain't no good a-changin'. There ain't no good in an evil-hearted woman, And I ain't cut out to be no Jessie Jane, And you don't go writin' hot checks down in Mississippi, And there ain't no good a-changin'.
