Houndmouth - 15 Years Lyrics
15 Years on the county lineEnough to make a man nearly lose his mindDown in Arlington, Virginia where the law make us stayBall and chain never felt so realWalls of stone fifty bars of steelWhen the warden gives me pardon darlin' I'll be coming home your wayAnd I wish you could have seen it when the good Lord spun me roundI should have known better than to think they could keep a good man downSo please don't you worryPlease don't you ever come see meLeaving out of Texas for that eastern sunriseWell now, I was in a bad way Lord but not to my surpriseJudge in a cornfield tryin' a manThey said let him hang in the white desert sandWhen the warden gives me pardon darlin' I'll be coming home your wayAnd I wish you could have seen it when the good Lord spun me roundI should have known better than to think they could keep a good man downSo please don't you worryPlease don't you ever come see me15 Years on the county lineEnough to make a man nearly lose his mindDown in Arlington, Virginia where the law make us stayBall and chain never felt so realWalls of stone fifty bars of steelWhen the warden gives me pardon darlin' I'll be coming home your wayAnd I wish you could have seen it when the good Lord spun me roundI should have known better than to think they could keep a good man downSo please don't you worryPlease don't you ever come see me
