Introdução:
D
Now these four walls of Raiford closing in on me.
A G D
Doing three to five hard labor for armed robbery.
D
I put two years well behind me, but I could not wait the time
A G D
For everytime I thought about it, Lord I died some more inside.
And they put stripes on my back. Memories of hurt.
D G
And I'm coming home to see my Jesus.
D
Lord, it feels so close this time.
A D
Please have mercy on a soldier from the Georgia-Florida mines.
G
When they find me they must kill me.
A G
Oh Jesus save my soul. I can't go back down to Raiford.
D
I can't take that anymore.
When Vietnam was over there was no work here for me.
