Eastham Prison Farm Blues (Stripped Back)

Well I was 21 in the slammer cuz I like cars that ain't mine Then I was on the run with a hammer-fired gun smuggled to me by my wife Before I could break stride they caught me with their light, they told me to raise my arms Before the daylight by no surprise I'm back in Eastham Prison Farm Mmmhmm Ahhah Ahhah Well I had to kill a man he wouldn't leave me alone so I crushed his skull with a pipe I put the blood on my buddy's hands he was already booked in for life In order to make light of the labor inside, I had to cause myself some harm I took a knife to my toes and I said my goodbyes to the Eastham Prison Farm Ahhah Mmmhmm Mmmhmm Once I left I never was again the same When you're on the inside you do whatever it takes You turn from a schoolboy to a rattlesnake That no good tune could charm I'm sorry sister Marie, yeah you're right that I changed All cuz of Eastham Prison Farm Mmmhmm Mmmhmm Mmmhmm Two years, 16 warrants, and a handful of banks to our name Elizabeth and Chestnut wanted for murder in four states On our way to the Parish on the 23rd of May, emptied 130 rounds in our car I died that day I'm still glad I escaped from the Eastham Prison Farm Yeah, The Eastham Prison Farm Well, The Eastham Prison Farm Mmmhmmm Mmmhmmm Mmmhmmm Mmmhmmm Mmmhmmm Mmmhmmm
