Lyrics for Song: The Four Walls Of Raiford
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Lynyrd Skynyrd
Well them four walls of raiford
Closein' in on me
Doin' 3 to 5 hard labor
For armed robbery
I had two years behind me
But I could not wait the time
Every time I thought about it
Well I'd die some more inside
And I had stripes on my back
Memories that hurt
For the only time I'd seen sunshine
Is when I went to work
Diggin' ditches for the chain gang
Sleepin' in the hole
Oh lord please forgive me
For I could not wait to roll
And I'm comin' home to see you Jesus
Well it feels so close this time
Please take mercy on a 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
Well these last few years behind me
Oh lord have been so sad
I fault proudly for my country
When the times are 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 a'waitin'
And two kids I had to feed
Well I'm one of America's heros
And when they shoot me down
Won't you fly ol' glory proudly
Put my medals in the ground
And I'm comin' home to see you Jesus
Well it feels so close this time
Please take mercy on a soldier
From the Florida Gorgia 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
