Aaron Ramsey Bluegrass - 100 Degrees In The Shade Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Down in Mississippi in the August sun
When you're bustin' lime all day and night
You got plenty of time to think of all you've done
Down in Mississippi workin' up the tracks
Doin' time for my brother's crime
'Til the day I die or the Lord comes back

[Chorus]
Oh Lord, we're livin' life on the end of a chain
Oh Lord, and it's a hundred degrees in the shade

[Verse 2]
Down in Mississippi, what do I spy?
A shiny thing, what could it be?
It's the boss's keys for the boys and I
Down in Mississippi, fellas, here's the plan
We can't make a sound and when we hit the ground
Don't let me down, we only got one chance

[Chorus]
Oh Lord, we're livin' life on the end of a chain
Oh Lord, and it's a hundred degrees in the shade

[Bridge]
They'll turn the hounds on us when they see we're on the run
I'd rather face the dogs than live out my life like one
[Chorus]
Oh Lord, we're livin' life on the end of a chain
Oh Lord, and it's a hundred degrees in the shade
Oh Lord, we're livin' life on the end of a chain
Oh Lord, and it's a hundred degrees in the shade
It's a hundred degrees in the shade
It's a hundred degrees in the shade

[Outro]
Down in Mississippi workin' up the tracks
Doin' time for my brother's crime
'Til the day I die or the Lord comes back
