Lynyrd Skynyrd - four walls of raiford текст песни

(ronnie vanzant -- jeff carlisi)

Well them four walls of raiford, closing in on me

Doin three to five hard labor, for armed robbery

I had two years behind, but I could not wait the time

Everytime I thought about it, well I died some more inside

And I had stripes on my back, memories that hurt

For the only time I seen sunshine is when I hit the dirt

Diggin ditches for the chain gang, sleepin in the cold

Oh lord please forgive me for I could not wait no more

And I comin home to see you jesus

Well it feels so close this time

Please take mercy on this soldier

From the florida-georgia line

When they find me they must kill me

Oh jesus save my soul

I cant go back down to raiford

I cant take that anymore

Well these last few years behind me

Oh lord, have been so sad

I fought proudly for my country when the times were bad

Now they say Im guilty, when they find me I must die

Only me and jesus know that I never stole a dime

Well when vietnam was over there was no work here for me

I had a pretty wife awaitin and two kids I had to feed

Well Im one of americas heroes and when they shoot me down

Wont fly old glory proudly, put my medals in the ground

And I comin home to see you jesus

Well it feels so close this time

Please take mercy on this soldier

From the florida-georgia line

When they find me they must kill me

Oh jesus save my soul

I cant go back down to raiford

I cant take that anymore
