Robert Wilkins - Nashville Stonewall lyrics

I stayed in jail, it was for thirty long days And that woman said she loved me, I could not see her face I looked out the window, saw the long-chain man Aw, he's comin' to call the boys by name He's gonna take me from here to Nashville, Tennessee He's gonna take me right back, boys, where I used to be I got a letter from home, reckon how it read? I got a letter from home, reckonin' how it read? It said, "Son, some on home to your mama, she's sick and nearly dead" I sit down and cried, and I screamed and squalled Said, "I cannot come home, mama, I'm behind these walls" Every mornin', 'bout four, boys, my deed have pa**ed You outta see me down in the foundries1, tryin' to do my task 'Cause the judge he sentenced me, boys, from five to ten I get out, I'm gonna k** that woman, I'll be right back again
