[Verse 1]
Fm D# Fm
I was standin' beside the road in Blackjack County
Fm D# C
Not knowing the sheriff paid a bounty
Fm D# C# C
For men like me who didn't have a penny to their names
Fm D# C C/D# Fm
So he locked my leg to thirty-five pounds of Blackjack County chain
[Verse 2]
Fm D# Fm
And all we had to eat was bread and water
Fm D# C
And each day we had to build that road a mile and a quarter
Fm D# C# C
F black snake whip would crack our backs if some poor fool complained
Fm D# C C/D# Fm
And you couldn't fight back wearin' thirty-five pounds of Blackjack County chain
[Verse 3]
Fm D# Fm
And then one night when the sheriff was a-sleepin'
Fm D# C
We gathered all around him slowly creepin'
Fm D# C# C
Heaven help me to forget that night in the cold, cold rain
Fm D# C C/D# Fm
When we beat him to death with thirty-five pounds of Blackjack County chain

Now the whip marks have all healed and I am thankful
Fm D# C
That there's nothing but these scars around my ankles
Fm D# C# C
But most of all I'm glad no man will be a slave again
Fm D# C C/D# Fm
To a black snake whip and thirty-five pounds of Blackjack County chain
