The Tale of Michael Flynn

[Verse 1]
I'm a stranger to your city
My name is Michael Flynn
I got drunk the other night
And the police run me in
Now, I had no money to pay my fine
No friend to go my bail
So I got stuck for 90 days
In the Portland County jail

[Chorus]
Oh, the Portland County jail
The Portland County jail
Yeah, I got stuck for 90 days
In the Portland County jail

[Verse 2]
Well, the only friend that I had in there
Was a man named Happy Jack
He told me of his life of crime
And of all the safes he'd cracked
He ran away from Idaho
With bloodhounds on his trail
Could freeze the blood of an honest man
In the Portland County jail

[Chorus]
Oh, the Portland County jail
The Portland County jail
Could freeze the blood of an honest man
In the Portland County jail

[Verse 3]
Well, thе very best friend that I еver had
Was Officer McCrum
He swore I was a dirty and
A no-good lazy bum
One Saturday night when I got tight
He tossed me in the can
And now you see he's made of me
An honest, workin' man

[Chorus]
Oh, the Portland County jail
The Portland County jail
And now you see he's made of me
An honest, workin' man

[Chorus]
(The Portland County jail) The Portland County jail
(The Portland County jail) The Portland County jail
And now you see he's made of me
An honest, workin' man
