How Long Before I Change My Clothes - Alvin Youngblood Hart

I’ve never done an hour in Parchman Jail

Couldn’t get nobody to go my bail

Singin', «How long 'fore I can change my clothes?»

Singin', «How long, how long 'fore I can change my clothes?»

I 'member when I was freezin' cold

You stand and look at me and my convicts' clothes

Singin', «How long 'fore I can change my clothes?»

Singin', «How long, how long 'fore I can change my clothes?»

I 'member

Couldn’t get much more corn bread

Singin', «How long 'fore I can change my clothes?»

Singin', «How long, how long 'fore I can change my clothes?»
