In eleven months and ten more days

Melody - & text: Arthur Fields & Fred Hall, 1930

I'm in the lock-up twenty days,
Just twenty days ago.
I met a judge, the kind old judges who was feeling fine and so,
He gave me just a year in jail,
A sociable sort of gink.
All on account of a gallon of beer,
That I thought I could drink.

|: In eleven months and ten more days,
   I'll be out of the calaboose.
   In eleven months and ten more days,
   They're going to turn me loose. :|
