Prison Song
Crosby Stills Nash & Young

One day a friend took me aside

And said I have to leave you

For buying something from a friend

They say I've done wrong

For protecting the name of a man

They say I'll have to leave you,

So now I'm bidding you farewell

For much too long.

And here's a song to sing,

For every man inside,

If he can hear you sing

It's an open door.

There's not a rich man there,

Who couldn't pay his way

And buy the freedom that's a high price

For the poor.

Kids in Texas

Smoking grass,

Ten year sentence

Comes to pass

Misdemeanor

In Ann Arbor,

Ask the judges

Why?

One day a friend said to her kids

I'm gonna have to leave you

For selling something to the man

I guess I did wrong

And although I did the best I could

I'm gonna have to leave you

So now I'm kissing you farewell

For much too long.

And here's a song to sing,

For every man inside

If he can hear you sing

It's an open door.

There's not a rich man there

Who couldn't pay his way

And buy the freedom that's a high price

For the poor
