4. You Know What They Do to Guys Like Us in Prison
In the middle of a gun fight In the center of a restaurant They say, "Come with your arms raised high" Well they're never gonna get me I'm like a bullet through a flock of doves To wage this war against your faith in me Your life Will never be the same On your mother's eyes, say a prayer Say your prayer Now, but I can't, and I don't know How we're just two men as God had made us Well I can't, well I can! Too much, too late, or just not enough of this pain in my heart For your dying wish, I'll kiss your lips again They all cheat at cards and the checkers are lost My cellmate's a killer, they make me do push-ups in drag But nobody cares if you're losing yourself I am losing myself and I miss my mom Will they give me the chair? Or lethal injection or swing from a rope, if you dare Oh, nobody knows all the trouble I've seen Now, but I can't, and I don't know How we're just two men as God had made us Well I can't, well I can! Too much, too late, or just not enough of this pain in my heart For your dying wish, I'll kiss your lips again To your room, what they ask of you They'll make you want to say "So long, well I don't remember Why remember you?" Do you have the keys to the hotel? 'Cause I'm gonna string this motherfucker on fire, fire Life is but a dream for the dead And well I, I won't go down on myself But I'll go down with my friends Now, now, now, go Now, now, go, now, now Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
