Spent too many years inside this prision Too many years just for one little fight He got what was comin and I think I've served enough time I'm goin home tonight That stone looks mighty cold And the guard that walks that walk Is just waitin to get a convict in his sights But if I can clear the top you can bet I'll never stop Cause I'm goin home tonight Because stone walls do a prision make and iron bars a cage Any man that says they don'ts never been inside Cause in time the bars get closer and at night the walls grow tighter Till you feel like there's a shackle around your mind Now those guards are on my tail, I can hear those sirens wail But I know that I'll get away and that I'll be alright Cause I'd rather live on the run, stand free in the mornin sun Than to spend another lonely prision night
