Son of a Prison Guard
作词 : Pat Monahan/Jerry Becker
作曲 : Pat Monahan/Jerry Becker
There was a mountain on
The table of bills that needed paid
Dishes in the kitchen sink
Like dreams that never fade
A wild imagination of convicts in the yard
Never enough time to make ends meet
So they put it on a credit card, don't we all?
You may not know just where you came from
But once upon a time
There was a carpenter
A bartender, a broken fishing line
Just south of Royal Teeth
In the town that I came from
There were architects and astronauts
But the only one she loved was a prison guard
And that's the only time I ever saw true love
And Erica's a girl I liked in Georgia
Long and kept me warm up in Eugene
I guess my mother bless so hard
Set the bar too high to the sky
What's fine enough for me is just too hard
A son of a prison guard
There's a gate that needed painting
Clothes that needed clean
They'd say there's time enough for that
When the fun has all been seen
Cause when we're laying on our death bed
A promise we won't say
Wish we would have worked more, baby
Instead of loving you that way, no way
And that's the only time I ever saw true love
Segourney is a girl I met in Brooklyn
Herris got me close in New Orleans
I guess my mother bless so hard
Set the bar too high to the sky
What's fine enough for me is just too hard
A son of a prison guard
I go wherever you are, whoever you are
I go wherever you are, whoever you are
I go wherever you are, whoever you are
I go wherever you are
Betty is a girl I knew in Charlotte
Join and Left for Sydney yesterday
I guess my mother bless so hard
Set the bar too high to the sky
What's fine enough for me is just too hard
A son of a prison guard
Whoever you are
