I been on the inside on my birthday
I been on the inside at halloween
Ate institutional turkey on thanks giving
That aint the worst I got to say
I been on the inside for xmas
Sang them songs in the prison church
Hallelujah, hallelujah
You wanna know the blues listen what I got to say
Just be on the inside on xmas day
I hog trains on my birthday
Walk dark highways on halloween
Ate salvation army turkey on thanks giving
That aint the worst I got to say
I been on the inside for xmas
Sang them songs in the prison church
Hallelujah, hallelujah
You wanna know the blues listen what I got to say
Just be on the inside on xmas day
