Might As Well Be A Slave Lyrics - Mary Black

Lying here watching the time pass 

I could think of a million things I'd rather do 

Travel at my own pace 

Put myself asleep if I wanted to 

Chorus 

Might as well be behind bars 

Than be lashed to a wave that I can't haul 

Might as well be a slave 

Lying low in the shade of a prison wall

Lying here watching the time pass 

I could cry for the helping hands that I refused 

We were good friends but I did refuse 

Chorus 

Might as well be behind bars 

Getting used to the sound of my keeper's call 

I might as well be a slave 

Drinking sun through a chink in a prison wall 

Down here down where the end is 

You absolve me from every crime I ever planned 

I was so surprised I did not think that you would understand 

Chorus 

Might as well be behind bars 

Growing old in a carpeted hall 

O might as well be a slave 

Ever safe out of the rain in prison walls
