Intro: 
G7 G 
(Play high G note on last note of each bar only)  (4x)

G
Doing hard time just got a little harder
Way up on the cell block, listen to her holler
Looky here honey, if you don't keep quiet
We're bound to start another brushy mountain prison riot

Chorus:
C                           G
Come on we're unshackled tonight
           D
I got a little time off for good behaviour
          C                                        
So let's rock it in the Brushy Mountain conjugal trailer

G
All shacked up and incarcerated
Locked down lovers just a getting reacquainted
Bars on the windows listen to 'em rattle
Tin can jumping like a rodeo saddle

Chorus:
C                        G
Come on we're unshackled tonight
         D
I got a little time off for good behaviour
          C
So let's kick it in the Brushy Mountain conjugal trailer

Bridge:
C
Give me a slide-out, double-wide, Class A trailer
G
Wrap it up in razor wire and take it to the jailer
D
Hurry up honey cause they hang me at dawn
          C                          D         G
I wanna jive a little 'fore I put my jumpsuit on

Break:
G7 G

G
Early next morning there's a knock upon the trailer
It's old mister hangman looking for a favour
Hey buddy with the lady if you do some introducing
I'll call up the governor for a stay of execution

Chorus:
C                          G
Come on we'll liberate you tonight
            D
If you'll allow the pretty lady to stay a little later
     C
And let me in your Brushy Mountain Conjugal Trailer

Outro:
