歌曲歌詞
Now I understand why so many own happy homes today
Now I understand why so many own happy homes today
These devils commit these crimes then a good person‘s got to pay
I‘ve got 25 years in this hell the doors slammin‘ night and day
I‘ve got 25 years in this hell the doors slammin‘ night and day
And they always coming and no one goin‘ away
Mmm this jail is a lonesome place
Mmm the jailhouse is a lonesome place
It almost killed me when these doors slammed in my face
I‘ve only been here one week and it seems like a year and a day
I‘ve only been here one week and it seems like a year and a day
It almost drives me crazy to think how much longer I‘ve got to stay
My baby said mmm judge how much time did you give my man
Mmm how much time did you give my man
He says only 25 years I tried to be light as I can
The judge he said I was guilty and he couldn‘t explain
The judge say I was guilty and he couldn‘t explain
Charged me with forgery and I can‘t even sign my name
