Merle Haggard

Merle Ronald Haggard (born April 6, 1937) is an American country music song writer, singer, guitarist, fiddler and instrumentalist. Along with Buck Owens, Haggard and his band The Strangers helped create the Bakersfield sound, which is characterized by the unique twang of Fender Telecaster and the unique mix with the traditional country steel guitar sound, new vocal harmony styles in which the words are minimal, and a rough edge not heard on the more polished Nashville Sound recordings of the same era. more »

She came her to see me today
In prison where I have to stay
But this time she came here
To tell me goodbye

Pretending that I understood
I held back the tears best I could
But I know that she knew
I wanted to cry

'Cause my hands are tied
I'm locked here inside
I want her, I need her, I love her
But my hands are tied

Her visits kept my world alive
Our love found the way to survive
But now it's all over
I've lost her for good

She waited with arms open wide
Till somebody else stepped inside
But I know she waited
As long as she could

'Cause my hands are tied
I'm locked here inside
I want her, I need her, I love her
But my hands are tied
