GUEST,JWB Origin: Deadheads and Suckers (24) RE: Origin: Deadheads and Suckers 05 Nov 17


I learned a version from Chris Turner of Providence, RI. It has a verse similar to one in the Crockett version, but the rest hasn't shown up here yet.

The chorus is the same as above.

Police and the high sheriff come riding after me (3x)
When good men are dying every day.

40 days in the jailhouse, I don't wanna go (3x)
When good men...

Pulled out my pistol, my big 44 (3x)
When good men...

Police and the high sheriff go falling down (3x)
When good men...

We jammed to this song two days ago at Fiddle Hell in Massachusetts.
