They sent me to rot in jail
Should I be here?
Within my love, I've found betrayal
Should I be here?
So I came home with a golden ring
Should I be here?
And found my girl and my best friend making love
As I sit into the cold and I wait to get old
I sing myself a lullaby for the day that never comes
Yes, I killed him that filthy man
Should I be here?
Yes, I killed him and would do it again
Should I be here?
We were supposed to have kids one day
Should I be here?
But we can't, 'cause I'm afraid I shot him dead
As I sit into the cold and I wait to get old
I sing myself a lullaby for the day that never comes
And I'll wait for the day that I'll be free to love again
And as I'll walk through my green mile
I'll walk alone but with a smile
