Stripes On My Back
nível sem nível
D A D D A D D Well them 4 walls of Raiford are closing in on me A D Doin 3-5 hard labor for armed robbery D I have 2 years behind me, I could not wait the time A D Every time I thought about it well I died some more inside D And I had stripes on my back and memories that hurt A D The only time I seen sunshine is when I went to work D Diggin' ditches for the chain gang, sleepin' the hole A D Oh Lord please forgive me for I could not wait for parole
[Refrão]
G D And I'm comin home to see Jesus, I feel so close this time A D Please take mercy on a soldier from the Florida/Georgia line G D When they find me they must kill me, Lord Jesus, save my soul A D I can't go back down to Raiford, I can't 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 But now they say I'm guilty and when they find me I must die Only me and Jesus know I never stole a dime Well when Vietnam was over there was no work here for me I had a pretty wife a-waitin' and 2 kids I had to feed Well I'm one of America's heroes and when they shoot me down Won't you fly Old Glory proudly, put my medals in the ground Chorus
