Four Walls of Raiford

[Verse 1] Well them four walls of Raiford, closing in on me Doing three to five hard labor, for armed robbery I had two years behind, but I could not wait the time Every time I thought about it, well I died some more inside And I had stripes on my back, memories that hurt For the only time I seen sunshine is when I hit the dirt Digging ditches for the chain gang, sleeping in the cold Oh Lord please forgive me for I could not wait no more [Chorus] And I coming home to see you Jesus Well it feels so close this time Please take mercy on this soldier From the Florida-Georgia line When they find me they must kill me Oh Jesus save my soul I can't go back down to Raiford I can't take that anymore [Verse 2] Well these last few years behind me Oh Lord, have been so sad I fought proudly for my country when the times were bad Now they say I'm guilty, when they find me I must die Only me and Jesus know that I never stole a dime Well when Vietnam was over there was no work here for me I had a pretty wife awaiting and two kids I had to feed Well I'm one of America's heroes and when they shoot me down Won't fly old Glory proudly, put my medals in the ground [Chorus]
