It was Gchristmas in prison And the Cfood was real good We had Gturkey and pistols Carved out of Dwood And I Gdream of her always Even Cwhen I dont dream Her Gnames on my tongue And her Dbloods in my Gstream.
Chorus:
DWait awhile CeterniGty COld mother natures got Gnothing on Dme GCome to me, Run to me CCome to me, now Were Grolling My sweetheart Were Dflowing By Ggod
(Repeat Intro)
She Greminds me of a chess game With Csomeone I admire Or a Gpicnic in the rain After a prairie Dfire Her Gheart is as big As this Cwhole goddamn jail And shes Gsweeter than saccharine At a Ddrug store Gsale.
(Chorus) (Repeat Intro)
The Gsearch light in the big yard Swings Cround with the gun And Gspotlights the snowflakes Like the dust in the Dsun Its Gchristmas in prison Therell be Cmusic tonight Ill Gprobably get homesick I Dlove you. goodGnight.
(Chorus)
