I Have To Do My Time - Lonnie Johnson
Now I understand why so many own happy homes today
Now I understand why so many own happy homes today
These devils commit these crimes then a good person's got to pay
I've got twenty-five years in this hell the doors slammin' night and day
I've got twenty-five years in this hell the doors slammin' night and day
And they always comin' and no one goin' away
Mmm this jail is a lonesome place
Mmm the jailhouse is a lonesome place
It almost killed me when these doors slammed in my face
I've only been here one week and it seems like a year and a day
I've only been here one week and it seems like a year and a day
It almost drives me crazy to think how much longer I've got to stay
My baby said 'Mmm Judge how much time did you give my man
Mmm how much time did you give my man '
He says 'Only twenty-five years I tried to be light as I can '
The judge he said I was guilty and he couldn't explain
The judge say I was guilty and he couldn't explain
Charged me with forgery and I can't even sign my name
