The County Jail

A man sits in the county jail and thinks.

Sitting lonely in a county jail
Don't know how I got here
I drank too much ale.

Memories of you and my best friend
Are on ma mind
Summers, winters and how we pasted the time.

But I got older and filled with hate.
I hurt my best friend and made you cry and wait.
My best friend left me and you cried some more.
You cried till you couldn't cry no more.
And when you left me my life hit the wall
Hate consumed me I ain’t got morals no more.

So I'm sitting lonely in a county jail
With nothing but memories to haunt me
And time to fill.
