Almost Done

歌詞

On a Monday I was arrested On a Tuesday I was locked up in jail On a Wednesday my trial was tested On a Thursday nobody to give my bail Lord it's all, almost done, Lord it's all, almost done Oh, Lord it's all, almost done And I ain't gonna see those pretty girls no more Take these stripes, stripes them of my shoulder Take these chains, chains from around my legs Well, these stripes, no they don't worry me But these chains, these chains are gonna kill me dead Lord it's all, almost done, Lord it's all, almost done Oh, Lord it's all, almost done And I ain't gonna see those pretty girls no more Well, she whispered, she whispered to her mama She said ?Mama I can't see how he stands 'Cause he's only, he's only sweet sixteen, Lord But they're drive him, they're driving him like a man" Lord it's all, almost done, Lord it's all, almost done Oh, Lord it's all, almost done And I ain't gonna see those pretty girls no more Well, I know, I know that someday These gates, these gates gonna open wide And we'll be gone, gone from here singin' But the captain, we've gonna leave him inside Lord it's all, almost done, oh, Lord it's all, almost done Oh, Lord it's all, almost done And I ain't gonna see those pretty girls no more
