Trapper Schoepp & The Shades - Twenty Odd Years Тексты

I ain’t got no one to blame
I am bound to my dying name
Lay me down on a bed of shame
And all I ask is for one more day

I’ve done twenty odd years
But my time’s not enough
I’ve been walking down death row
Since the day I was cuffed
I’m not looking for forgiveness
Lord knows I’ve changed
I wouldn’t do no wrong
But they don’t see it that way

I ain’t got no one to blame
I am bound to my dying name
Lay me down on a bed of shame
And all I ask is for one more day

I’ve been pacing around
Cell block three

Some of us will stay here
Well I guess I’ll get to leave
Handsome harry couldn’t escape
Had no famous last words
But when his face was uncovered
His blue eyes were blazing
He appeared to be saying something no one had heard

I ain’t got no one to blame
I am bound to my dying name
Lay me down on a bed of shame
And all I ask is for one more day

Now my cell is empty
The chaplain’s just left
As my officer arrives
I hold my breath

I ain’t got no one to blame
I am bound to my dying name
Lay me down on a bed of shame
And all I ask is for one more day
