Johnny Cash - Please Don’t Let Me Out lyrics
[Johnny Cash - Please Don’t Let Me Out lyrics]
Parole has just come through
The gates will soon swing open wide
But I'm not going through
Jail's the only home I know
Or care to know about
Please let me stay where I belong
Please don't let me out
How could I tell those friends of mine
They've seen the last of me
Can't I make you understand I
Never can be free
Because that's a big unfriendly world and
I don't know the route
That leads to where I may belong
Please don't let me out
I had to learn to get along
Without a lot of things
And I had to learn to live
With the loneliness confinement brings
And I learnt to take no mail
From home or whatever came about
Now I'm dug in and I'm happy
Here please don't let me out
How could I tell those friends of mine
Yes that's a big unfriendly world
