Christmas in Prison 歌詞

Christmas in Prison - Christmas Classics Collection/Mistletoe Holidays/Mistletoe Singers

It was Christmas in prison

And the food was real good

We had turkey and pistols

 

Carved out of wood

 

And I dream of her always

Even when I don't dream

Her name's on my tongue

And her blood's in my stream

 

Wait awhile eternity

 

Old mother nature's got nothing on me

 

Come to me

Run to me

Come to me now

We're rolling

My sweetheart

We're flowing

By god

 

She reminds me of a chess game

With someone I admire

Or a picnic in the rain

After a prairie fire

 

Her heart is as big

As this whole goddamn jail

And she's sweeter than saccharine

At a drug store sale

 

Wait awhile eternity

 

Old mother nature's got nothing on me

 

Come to me

Run to me

Come to me now

We're rolling

My sweetheart

We're flowing

By god

 

The search light in the big yard

Swings round with the gun

And spotlights the snowflakes

Like the dust in the sun

 

It's Christmas in prison

There'll be music tonight

I'll probably get homesick

I love you goodnight

 

Wait awhile eternity

 

Old mother nature's got nothing on me

 

Come to me

Run to me

Come to me now

We're rolling

My sweetheart

We're flowing

 

 

By god
