Time Off for Good Behavior — текст песни (Neil Young)





My brother went to prison

Hes in kingston doin time

He got seven years for sellin

What Ive been smokin all my life

Time off for good behavior

But the boy dont feel too good

Locked behind those steel bars

I dont know if he should



Yeh a few years ago they called me

Back home to get a big award

They also called my brother

But they made him say "my lord"

They locked me up in a hall of fame

And threw away the keys

But when they put my brother away

It really did somethin to me



Now Im guilty as hell for sayin

"boy you better go back home"

You know youll get a fair shake there

Were running all alone

When he called me up from the border

With the mounties on his tail

I said go back to canada

We can raise the bail



Now I get these letters

From a cell with no tv

He says hes outside one hour

And inside twenty three

Time off for good behavior

But the boy dont feel too good

Locked behind those steel bars

I dont know if he should



Now Im guilty as hell for sayin

"boy you better go back home"

You know youll get a fair shake there

Were running all alone

When he called me up from the border

With the mounties on his tail

I said go back to canada

We can raise the bail



My brother went to prison

Hes in kingston doin time

He got seven years for sellin

What Ive been smokin all my life
