Behind these bars,
oh I see the sun
I'm here
because
of the wrong I've done My woman needs,
made me ashamed
I stoned for her,
oh I should have stood up like a man
I got to say good morning,
to the old nine pound steel
Oh it hurt me so bad Joe,
now listen to me
I'm working like a slave,
paying for
my mistake
I know someday I'll be free
So please,

I got to say good morning,
to this old nine pound steel

This old jail,
oh it's so cold
And I need you darling,
oh I need your love so bad
I know someday,
oh someday I'll be free
So please, please, please, please darling
Please wait for me
I got to say good morning,
to this old nine
pound steel
Oh it hurt me so bad Joe,
I wonder what my woman doing out there
