San Quentin #2 Lyrics - The Man In Black - Johnny Cash

San Quentin, you've been livin' hell to me 

You've hosted me since nineteen sixty three 

I've seen 'em come and go and I've seen 'em die 

And long ago I stopped askin' why 

San Quentin, I hate every inch of you 

You've cut me and you've have scarred me through an' through 

And I'll walk out a wiser, weaker man 

Mister Congressman, you can't understand? 

San Quentin, what good do you think you do? 

Do you think I'll be different when you're through? 

You bent my heart and mind and you wart my soul 

Your stone walls turn my blood a little cold

San Quentin, may you rot and burn in hell 

May your walls fall and may I live to tell 

May all the world forget you ever stood 

And may all the world regret you did no good 

San Quentin, I hate every inch of you
