[Bobby Womack - Arkansas State Prison lyrics]

Na Na NaNaNa naNa NaNa NaNa

I've served time
3 long years in Arkansas State Prison

To hear all about it
Come sit down and listen i slaved the way

Pickin' cotton till I thought
My back was breakin' 3 meals a day
All I ate was black eyed peas
And long cold cornbread it was a night near
The time I spent there
More than once I felt a climy hand
Upon my shoulder

Mr death was telling me that
I'd never get a minute over

I was man i refused to bring along
With Memphis Red i buffered the guise


Madden tres better left unsaid

He insisted but, I resisted
He wouldn't stop - i grabbed a shovel
And I opened up his head! He wouldn't stop

I grabbed a shovel and I opened up his head!
All the guards took a good look
At what I done
At what I done - then hey said
Say your prize boy, your race
Has been the run just for kicks

They set me free and they brought the dogs
To hunt me down and then the rains came
And heeled my scent
And my hiding place was never found

I was one they never found
Oooh, I was one they never found
No one knows how many they list as missin'
Ohhhh i lie in deep in the fields at the
Arkansas State Prison
