And finally they jest threw up their hands and said

When I heard somethin' behind me
E7                                A          E7

The judge was a fishin' buddy that I recognized
        B7                             E7
I said "Hey, judge, old buddy, old pal"

So he gave my friends a little fine to pay
    A                           F#7
He turned around and grinned at  me  and said
B7             E7                 A        E7
."Ninety days, Jerry, when you hot,.you hot"
