Free from the prison
The first breath of my new freedom
Feels so right
But I can feel the hounds
Fast as I can now
I am running
And the sheriff's on my trail
I'm not trying to make no sound
And I'll never be in love if he catch me
And I'll never have no fun if he catch me
Young, I was so young
When they got me
At the wrong place and wrong time
And I'm trying to make up
For all the lost years
I been missin'
All the girls I should have kissed
Have gone and grown up
Mama always said that I should never lose my head
But mama you ain't see the things that I have seen
Now I know that life is more than robbin' old department stores
And I want nothing more than to be free
And I'll never be in love if he catch me
And I'll never have no fun if he catch me
