David Allan Coe - On My Feet Again lyrics

I spent a lifetime in prison believing id never get over the fall Busted for first degree I was to blind to see who was to blame for it all Some said the devil, but god only knows if I put my future in him Other folks bet that id never get on my feet again Running and jumping free as a bird just like a child left to play Freedom was one more thing I took for granted until they took it away Marriages breakup and some people take up drinking to make them forget Both of them swearing, neither one caring wishing that they never met Taking the child away, who cares what children say until they turn into men Someday you'll see I'm gonna be on my feet again And I left my stomach in Houston on some surgeons knife but I sleep though it all In the recovery room fate dealt the cards to soon taking my legs in the fall Wheel chairs turn into canes till I learned to walk places that I've never been Now that im free its good to be on my feet again
