Prison Song

Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
One day a friend took me aside And said I have to leave you For buying something from a friend They say I've done wrong For protecting the name of a man They say I'll have to leave you, So now I'm bidding you farewell For much too long. And here's a song to sing, For every man inside, If he can hear you sing It's an open door. There's not a rich man there, Who couldn't pay his way And buy the freedom that's a high price For the poor. Kids in Texas Smoking grass, Ten year sentence Comes to pass Misdemeanor In Ann Arbor, Ask the judges Why? One day a friend said to her kids I'm gonna have to leave you For selling something to the man I guess I did wrong And although I did the best I could I'm gonna have to leave you So now I'm kissing you farewell For much too long. And here's a song to sing, For every man inside If he can hear you sing It's an open door. There's not a rich man there Who couldn't pay his way And buy the freedom that's a high price For the poor
