Behind Bars Songtext
von David Boyd Janes

She might as well said life without parole
Cause that′s what I heard when she flipped the bird
And took off down the road
That blacked out Chevy, lord it kills me
It's still in my name
Guess I′ll sit right here and order up another drink

Behind bars
Well that's where I've been
Since she said go to hell
This neon cell
Is what I′m locked up in

Behind bars
It ain′t no joke
Just doin' my time
Payin′ for the crime
Of a long gone heart I broke
Yeah life is hard
Behind bars

Behind bars


Well I met some other prisoners like me
Grippin' something cold, a little smoke
On a torn up leather seat
We′re half convinced
If we throw cents
In a whiskey wishin' well
That some pretty little thing will walk in
And post our bail

Behind bars
Well that′s where I've been
Since she said go to hell
This neon cell
Is what I'm locked up in

Behind bars
It ain′t no joke
Just doin′ my time
Payin' for the crime
Of a long gone heart I broke
Yeah life is hard
Behind bars

Behind bars
Well that′s where I've been
Since she said go to hell
This neon cell
Is what I′m locked up in


Behind bars
It ain't no joke
Just doin′ my time
Payin' for the crime
Of a long gone heart I broke
Yeah life is hard
Behind bars

Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Behind bars
