I Made The Prison Band Lyrics - Merle Haggard

Deep inside this lonely prison where the pleasures are so few; 

Where the walls are strong and the days are long and there's nothin' new. 

I learned to play the guitar. 

I'm doin' the best I can. 

I guess things could be worse 'cause I made the prison band. 

I made the prison band. 

 

Well there's ol' bashful Bill on the doghouse bass, 

Willie on the steel guitar. 

He hails from Pocatello and He drags a pretty mean bar. 

Back on the drums is two-time Tom, a rimshot tempo man. 

They call me their singin' Emcee 'cause I made the prison band. 

Yes I made the prison band. 

 

I'd been plannin' a break since Christmas. 

I had the details all worked out. 

But now I know that I ain't gonna go and there ain't no doubt. 

I had my try-out Sunday and the outcome changed my plans. 

I gotta rehearse for the Friday night show 'cause I made the prison band. 

I made the prison band. 

 

Well there's Ol' bashful Bill on the doghouse bass, 

Willie on the steel guitar. 

He hails from Pocatello and He drags a pretty mean bar. 

Back on the drums is two-time Tom, a rim shot tempo man. 

They call me their singin' Emcee 'cause I made the prison band. 

Yes I made the prison band.
