Marty Robbins - One Window, Four Walls lyrics
[Marty Robbins - One Window, Four Walls lyrics]
I once had my freedom and my life before me
Was brighter and sweeter than
All words could tell
But I lost it all for the love of a woman
Now I'll spend my life in
This cold prison cell
One window
Four walls and a door that won't open
That's the only world that I'll ever see
One window
Four walls and a door that won't open
The warden takes care of the key
The first time I saw her my
Friends tried to warn me
But I let her fool me
With lips soft and sweet
When I found her there in the arms of another
Just one single shot left her dead at my feet
One window
Four walls and a door that won't open
That's the only world that I'll ever see
One window
Four walls and a door that won't open
The warden takes care of the key
The jury that tried me would give me no mercy
They said I was guilty, that I had to pay
Behind prison walls and with
No hope of freedom
There's nothing to live for
There's no need to pray
One window
Four walls and a door that won't open
That's the only world that I'll ever see
One window
Four walls and a door that won't open
The warden takes care of the key
Was brighter and sweeter than
All words could tell
But I lost it all for the love of a woman
Now I'll spend my life in
This cold prison cell
One window
Four walls and a door that won't open
That's the only world that I'll ever see
One window
Four walls and a door that won't open
The warden takes care of the key
The first time I saw her my
Friends tried to warn me
But I let her fool me
With lips soft and sweet
When I found her there in the arms of another
Just one single shot left her dead at my feet
One window
Four walls and a door that won't open
That's the only world that I'll ever see
One window
Four walls and a door that won't open
The warden takes care of the key
The jury that tried me would give me no mercy
They said I was guilty, that I had to pay
Behind prison walls and with
No hope of freedom
There's nothing to live for
There's no need to pray
One window
Four walls and a door that won't open
That's the only world that I'll ever see
One window
Four walls and a door that won't open
The warden takes care of the key
