Too many mornin' gotta wake up soon

Oh Lord and eat my breakfast

By the light of 'de moon

Oh Lord by the light of 'de moon

If you see my momma tell her this for me

Oh I've got a mighty long time

Lord knows I'll never go free

Oh Lord I'll never be free

Angola bound now Angola bound

Angola bound now Angola bound

I got lucky last summer when

I got my time Angola bound

Well my partner got a hundred

I got ninety-nine Angola bound

You been a long time coming

But you're welcome home Angola bound

And go to Louisiana get your burdens on Angola bound

Oh Captain oh Captain don't you be so cruel Angola bound

Oh you work me harder than you work that mule Angola bound

If it wasn't for the Captain oh Lord I'm shaggin' house

I'd be with my woman yeah before the sun goes down

You come up here skippin' and a' jumpin'

Oh Lord it won't last long

Gonna wish you was a baby boy in your mother's arms

Angola bound now Angola bound

Angola bound now Angola bound

Don't want no gal-boy lovin'

'Cause I got my load Angola bound

Don't want no trouble out 'de boys

I know Angola bound

Oh they always talkin' 'bout dangerous blue Angola bound

If I had my shank I'd be dangerous too Angola bound

Oh Captain say walk and the boss say run Angola bound

If I had my pistol I would do 'nere one Angola bound

If it wasn't for the Captain oh Lord I'm shaggin' house

I'd be with my woman yeah before the sun goes down

You come up here skippin' and 'a jumpin'

Oh Lord it won't last long

Gonna wish you was a baby boy in your mother's arms

Angola bound now Angola bound

Angola bound now Angola bound

If it wasn't for the Captain oh Lord I'm shaggin' house

I'd be with my woman yeah before the sun goes down

You come up here skippin' and a jumpin'

Oh Lord it won't last long

Gonna wish you was a baby boy in your mother's arms

Angola bound now Angola bound

Angola bound now Angola bound

If I'd always listened to what my

Momma said Angola bound

I wouldn't be deep down in the trouble this way Angola bound

Oh my momma she told me leave that junk alone Angola bound

Got hooked to the habit had to carry on Angola bound

The jury found me guilty 'cause they wrote it down Angola bound

Judge said junkie boy you're penitentiary bound Angola bound

Angola bound now Angola bound

Angola bound now Angola bound

Angola bound now Angola bound

Angola bound now Angola bound
