Some Early Morning |
| It was late one night in the heart of town I was drinking all alone |
| Ran out of cash when I paid my tabs so I headed home |
| The night was black, the air was thick as I wandered passed a barn |
| Then a shot came out and I heard a scream beside me in the dark |
| Afraid that maybe I’d be next I started to run |
| Just as fast as my feet would go into the barrel of a gun |
| The lawman’s light was blinding me he said why’d you do it son |
| Two weeks later in the criminal court I was up on murder one |
| Maybe some early morning in a pasture of green |
| Beside the still water I’ll awake from this dream |
| This terrible dream |
| Well I sat there in the courtroom as the tears ran down my face |
| A guilty man is free somewhere and they put me in his place |
| The jury ran the verdict and the judge called out my name |
| He said young man you’ll spend your life wearing the ball and chain |
| I’m staring at the ceiling as I lay here on my bed |
| Fourteen long and lonely years it’s where I laid my head |
| Behind these cold gray prison walls time sure passes slow |
| And I guess if I die tomorrow I’d still got a life to go |
| Maybe some early morning in a pasture of green |
| Beside the still water I’ll awake from this dream |
| This terrible dream |
| A man who’s lost his vision will live and die alone |
| In the cold walls of this prison my heart has turned to stone |
| The lights are growing dimmer as I take my final breath |
| I can smell the air of freedom as I close my eyes in death |
| Maybe some early morning in a pasture of green |
| Beside the still water I’ll awake from this dream |
| This terrible dream |
