Angry Johnny And The k**billies - Prison Walls lyrics

These prison walls keep me from leaving There's no escape I'm not strong enough I was condemned the night the devil came soul stealin' The day I lost my one true love These prison walls are built of sorrow These prison bars are built of pain My prison cell is always with me I live in hell, I've gone insane This prison is my very own invention Nobody sees the barbed wire but me I think that they're just no paying attention I pray she comes back home and sets me free The prison guards, laugh at my heartache The say there';s no chance for parole I tried so hard, but these bars they will not break She took my heart, Scratch took my soul What kind of stones are these walls made of If I am guilty what was my crime I love her so what was she afraid of Forever more I'll do my time These prison walls keep me from leaving These prison bars harder than steel She's got her own prison walls and they're concealing The love that she will never feel.
