Life To Go — текст песни (Charlie Louvin)

I`ve got a sad sad story friend that I don`t like to tell
I had a home and fam`ly when they locked me in this cell
I`ve been here eighteen years that`s a long long time I know
But time don`t mean a thing to me cause I`ve got life to go
Well I went one night where the lights were bright just to see what I could see
I met up with an old friend who`s thought the world of me
He bought me drinks and he took me to every honky tonk in town
Words were said and now he`s dead I just had to bring him down
Well it`s been a long long time now since I`ve heard from my wife
Guess I`ll be there with her yet if I hadn`t used the knife
Well I`ll bet that little girl of mine don`t realize or know
Her daddy`s been here eighteen years still got life to go
Well I`ll bet there`s not one man outside that`s spent this long in jail
I`ll be here in this prison till my body`s just a shell
No I can`t be free to go and see the ones that I love so
I`ve been here eighteen years still got life to go
