After seven years behind these bars together
|
I'll miss you more than a brother when you go when you go
|
If only I had not tried to escape
|
They'd barred me with you I know yes I know
|
|
Won't you tell the folks back home I'll soon be coming
|
And don't let them know I never will be free be free
|
Sometimes write and tell me how they're doing
|
And send a picture of mother back to me
|
|
Say hello to Dad and shake his poor hardworking hand
|
And send a picture of mother if you can
|
|
I'm happy for you that you got your freedom
|
But stay with me just another minute or so or so
|
After all this sweating blood together
|
Who'll be my fighting partner when you go when you go
|
|
The hardest time will be on Sunday morning
|
Church bells will ring on Heaven Hill Heaven Hill
|
Please ask Reverend Garrett to pray for me
|
And send a picture of mother if you will
|
|
Say hello to Dad and shake his poor hardworking hand
|
And send a picture of mother if you can
|
