Through these walls I see the sun I'm here because The wrong I've done... Made me ashamed I stole from her Oh, when I should've stood up like a man You see, I've got to say good morning To a nine pound steel
Listen to me now They got me working Like a slave Payin' for My mistake I know someday I'll be free (someday) Please darling Oh honey, wait for me
I've got to say good morning To a nine pound steel Good morning to that old nine pound steel This old jail Is so cold I need ya darling I need your love more and more
I know someday Someday I'll be free (someday) Free darling, oh honey wait for me Until I lay down this whole nine Nine pound - nine pound steel It's so hard, sometimes Listen to me, honey I'm comin' home (come home) Wait for me I'm comin' home Wait for me
