Prison Bound Lyrics - Prison Bound - Social Distortion

Well, I'm goin' to a place where the tough guys go 

And come out even tougher 

A place where a man don't show his feelings 

A place where a man don't cry 

Well, they say I'm being punished 

And they say I can be reformed 

But some day I'll return, did they really think 

That this time it would work, you knew all along it wouldn't 

Oh, I'm prison bound 

I did a crime one too many times 

It's on the outskirts of town, by the railroad tracks 

Where the country moon shines 

Oh, I'm prison bound 

Tell my girl I'll be back one day 

Oh, I'm prison bound 

I may never know any other way 

Well, they take away my freedom of expression or action 

Johnny says, "I'll walk the line" 

With three hots and a cot and a lot of talk 

With lock-up, concrete, and steel 

Well, it's cold and it's clammy 

Man, it's colder than a pimp's heart 

But I've gotta do my time, there's a lesson to be learned here 

But what a price to pay, you know, I may never learn 

Oh, I'm prison bound 

I did a crime one too many times 

It's on the outskirts of town, by the railroad tracks 

Where the country moon shines 

Oh, I'm prison bound 

Tell my girl I'll be back one day 

Oh, I'm prison bound 

I may never know any other way
