Yeah a Gfew years ago they called me
Back Dhome to get a big Gaward
They Galso called my brother
C G*
But they made him say My Lord
They Glocked me up in a Hall of Fame
And Dthrew aCway the Emkeys
But Cwhen they put my brother away
It really did somethin' to Dme

GNow I get these letters
From a Dcell with no TGV
He Gsays he's outside one hour
And Cinside twenty Gthree
Time Goff for good behavior
But the Dboy don't Cfeel too Emgood
CLocked behind those steel bars
I don't know if he Dshould
