Lyrics

I broke jail in Oconee, Georgia, changed my name to Jimmy Bill

The persona escaped from jail in Oconee, Georgia, and adopted the alias "Jimmy Bill."

I was wanted for some time that I had killed

Oh, I shot down Martha Hawkins and I robbed her of her pride

I chose Forth Worth as a place to hide

Chose Fort Worth, Texas, as a place to hide from authorities.


Oh, them Georgia prisons don't have such a beautiful view

Comparing the unappealing view from Georgia prisons to the more scenic surroundings of Fort Worth.

And Fort Worth's such a wonderful town to disappear into

On the muscle of my arm there's a red and blue tattoo

Buy a chilli dog and watch the rodeo on T.V

In Texas, killin' time's no crime, but now I'm in the clear

Once more, Matha Hawkins won't find me here
