Painted Sky - Dime in Dannemora Lyrics




Did a dime in Dannemora
Built me a nickel in Joliet
Three deuces down in Attica
Great times I won't forget

Well I lived my life on the wrong side
The only side I know
I was born to be a convict
I'm an outlaw in my soul

My daddy was 10 feet tall
With eyes of fire
And hands of steel
At least it seemed that way
He taught me to stand up strong
To right every wrong
To fight and steal for every meal
And stake your claim

Stand your ground
Don't get pushed around
Be tough and live without fear
And take what you want
From the banks cause like they say
You know the money's there

Did a dime in Dannemora
Built me a nickel in Joliet
Three deuces down in Attica
Great times I won't forget

Well I lived my life on the wrong side
The only side I know
I was born to be a convict
I'm an outlaw in my soul

Well I did the crime
And I served hard time
I can't be tamed so they say
But I can fashion a shiv
From five toothpicks
Hide anything in my cage
I can sneak a bundle, drink some chalk, trade some clavo, eat a choke,
So don't mess with me 'cause I'm no joke
I outrank you, I can shank you, send a body to the tank
So do not snitch or be a bitch or you'll have me to thank

Did a dime in Dannemora
Built me a nickel in Joliet
Three deuces down in Attica
Great times I won't forget

Well I lived my life on the wrong side
The only side I know
I was born to be a convict
I'm an outlaw in my soul

I'm a frequent flyer with a soul on fire
I'll catch a ride and rage in my cage
And trade you bats for a binky
And won't start acting hinky
Damn the judges, cops and screws
I'm delivering you the news
Mace me, bind me
Throw me in the hole
I'll do my Buck Rogers time 'til
The day of my parole
