Verse 1
A
A
Come to the door, Ma,
D
D
A
A
and unlock the chain
I was just passin' through and
D
D
got caught in the rain
There's nothin' I want, nothin'
A
A
that you need say
Just let me lie down for a while
E
E
A
A
and I'll be on my way
D
D
I was no more than a kid when you put me on the Southern
Verse 2
A
A
Queen
With the police on my back
D
D
I fled to New Orleans
I fought in the dockyards and with the money I
A
A
made
I knew the fight was my home
and blood was my trade
D
D
Baton Rouge, Ponchatoula, and Lafayette
Verse 3
A
A
town
Well they paid me their money,
D
D
Ma, I knocked the men down
I did what I did well it come
A
A
easily
Restraint and mercy,
E
E
A
A
D
D
Ma, were always strangers to me

Verse 4
A
A
I fought champion Jack Thompson in a
D
D
A
A
field full of mud
Rain poured through the tent to the canvas
D
D
and mixed with our blood
In the twelfth I slipped my tongue
A
A
over my broken jaw
I stood over him and pounded his bloody
D
D
body into the floor
Well the bell rang and rang and
A
A
still I kept on
'Till I felt my glove leather slip
'tween his skin and bone
D
D
Then the women and the money came fast and the days I lost
Verse 5
A
A
track
The women red, the money green,
D
D
but the numbers were black
I fought for the men in their silk suits
A
A
to lay down their bets
I took my good share, Ma, I have
no regrets
Verse 6
A
A
Then I took the fix at the state armory with big John
McDowell
From high in the rafters
D
D
I watched myself fall
As they raised his arm my stomach
A
A
twisted and the sky it went black
I stuffed my bag with their good money
E
E
A
A
and I never looked back
D
D
Understand, in the end, Ma, every man plays the
Verse 7
A
A
game
If you know me one different then
speak out his name
D
D
Ma, if my voice now
you don't recognize
A
A
Then just open the door and look
E
E
A
A
into your dark eyes
D
D
I ask of you nothin', not
a kiss not a smile,
A
A
Just open the door and let me
E
E
lie down for a while
A
A
Now
Verse 8
the gray rain's fallin' and my
D
D
A
A
ring fightin's done
So in the work fields and alleys I take all
D
D
who'll come
If you're a better man than me then
A
A
just step to the line
Show me your money and speak out
D
D
your crime
Now there's nothin' I want, Ma, nothin'
A
A
that you need say
Just let me lie down for a while and
E
E
A
A
I'll be on my way
Verse 9
A
A
Tonight in the shipyard a man draws a circle
in the dirt
I move to the center and I take off
D
D
my shirt
I study him for the cuts, the scars,
the pain,
A
A
Man, nor time can erase
I move hard to the left and
D
D
A
A
D
D
I strike to the face
A
