Life Behind Bars

Spendin' my time livin' life behind bars

Ain't doin' hard time, but the times get hard

Didn't come wearin' cuffs in the back of some car

No judge, no jury ever put me here

Got a story to tell ya

A bunch of songs and there ain't nothin' 'bout no rock 'n' roll

Sold my soul to the devil

A pocketful of songs for a handful of gold, uh-huh

That was the day that everything changed

Spendin' my time livin' life behind bars

Ain't doin' hard time, but the times get hard

Didn't come wearin' cuffs in the back of some car

No judge, no jury ever put me here

Still payin' this price for the life I chose

Once you got a record, guess it's how it goes

Still servin' my sentence with this old guitar

Spendin' my time livin' life behind bars

Done a few nights locked up in county

Did the time, paid the fine, then they let me go

But this ain't that kind of party

No jail, no bail, and hell, no parole

Spendin' my time livin' life behind bars

Ain't doin' hard time, but the times get hard

Didn't come wearin' cuffs in the back of some car

No judge, no jury ever put me here

Still payin' this price for the life I chose

Once you got a record, guess it's how it goes

Still servin' my sentence with this old guitar

Spendin' my time livin' life behind bars

Spendin' my time livin' life behind bars

Ain't doin' hard time, but the times get hard

Didn't come wearin' cuffs in the back of some car

No judge, no jury ever put me here

Still payin' this price for the life I chose

Once you got a record, guess it's how it goes

Still servin' my sentence with this old guitar

Spendin' my time livin' life behind bars

Still spendin' my time livin' life behind bars
