Cole

Capo 2

Served six years in Huntsville with

Now his thoughts fall on stone floor with

And a

By the

His

But he

Guards close the big gate with the turn of a hinge

While a lonely old widow sleeps with revenge

Cole sleeps with sunsets and bright midnight stars

And the rhythm of night sticks tappin the bars

Chorus

He lives in his memories he's got a wife of two years

Her black and white photo is stained with his tears

She left him for Tulsa she Goddamned him to hell

Now she stares at the mirror in a rat trap motel

Chorus

He blends with the inmates they all look the same

They don't like his face cause they don't know his name

He's cursed by the warden he's calmed by the priest

Where he fights with his conscience for his sins to release

Don't you cry for me mama my days came and went

Now the chamber is empty and the last shells been spent

Look in on my wife and give her your care

And if I get to heaven I know ill see you there

Chorus
