I'm gonna give you thirty days to get back home

I done talked to the gypsey woman on the telephone

And I talked to the judge in private early this morning
And he took me to the sheriff's office to sign a warrant
Going to put a cross charge again' ya
That'll be the very thing that'll send ya
I'm going to see that you be back home in thirty days

Chorus:
Oh, thirty days (Thirty days)
Oh, thirty days (Thirty days)
I'm going to see that you be back home in thirty days
Yeah, I'm going to put a false charge again' ya
That'll be the very thing that'll send ya
I'm going to see that you be back home in thirty days

If I don't get no satisfaction from the judge
I'm going to take it to the FBI and voice my grudge
If they don't give me no consolation
I'm going to take it to the United Nations
I'm going to see that you be back home in thirty days

Chorus:
Oh thirty days! (Thirty days)
Oh thirty days! (Thirty days)
Babe I'ma to see that you
Be back home in thirty days (Thirty days)
You don't give me no consolation
I'm going to take it to the United Nations
I'm going to see that you be back home in thirty days
