Rolling Prison Line The Ultimate Johnny Cash Song by Owen Walsh Lyrics

Genre: country | Year: 2021

Well the warden's a conductor on this prison train
Lord riding these rails is a crying shame
But I've spent half my life on this rolling prison line

Never known another convict to get out and break loose
And the only ones that try end up in the caboose
And they're bound to die on this rolling prison line

Sure as I know that the lord is risen
I'll spend all my life on this locomotive prison
I'd like someone to blame, but the blame's all mine
And there's no mercy on this rolling prison line

Wеll the train it never stops and it don't run on coal
Lord this pеnitentiary runs hot with convicts' souls
The guards shovel it in on this rolling prison line

Now if I had the strength to break out of these bars
I would surely dive on out of this jailhouse car
And go and find the man who built this rolling prison line
Well Sure as I know that the lord is risen
I'll spend all my life on this locomotive prison
I'd like someone to blame, but the blame's all mine
And there's no mercy on this rolling prison line
