Cash's version is credited to him and Charlie Williams,[3] but they borrowed from a song by Lead Belly titled "On a Monday".[4]
Lead Belly's original, also known as "Yellow Women's Door Bells" and "Almost Done", was recorded and released by him in 1939[5] and reflected his "prison experiences".[6]
According to Robert Hilburn and his book Johnny Cash: The Life, "I Got Stripes" is a "raucous prison tale" written by Johnny Cash and Charlie Williams, a DJ from Los Angeles and Cash's friend. They borrowed from a song by Lead Belly titled "On a Monday".[4]
