Behind Bars

歌詞

If anybody cares to know Where I learned to bum a smoke Or why Folsom Prison Blues could make me cry I keep my cards close to my chest I got scars on my fists 'Cause I'm too quick to stand up for my pride It don't bother me to be alone And I feel right at home in the dark I've spent some time Behind bars It ain't as bad you might think We laughed and talked and cussed and drank And didn't want to leave once we were in Saw some things I can't forget And I got friends that ain't out yet And I stop by and see them now and then I'm still a branded man who likes a cover band And a shot of Maker's Mark I've spent some time Behind bars I shot the bull, killed some time Drowned some memories till they died Confessed my soul to strangers I've never met a stranger When I was free to go, all I could say Was "Set 'em up, Joe" When I go there, man, I go there hard I've spent some time Behind bars You can see my history It's tattooed all over me If you know what you're looking for I'll admit, it's tough sometimes To walk a straight and narrow line Instead of walking through those swinging doors If you think I'm what you need You need to know before I steal your heart I've spent some time Behind bars
