Life Behind Bars Lyrics

LIFE BEHIND BARS





DERYL DODD/BRETT BEAVERS





I’ve been here most all my life

Doin’ time behind these bars

I must’ve walked a thousand miles cross this floor

But no one can ever say that I never made my mark

‘Cause when the lights go out tonight I’ll make one more



Chorus: I’ve seen faces come and go many lost and lonely souls

And the stories I could tell you would break your heart

Lord I guess I’ve seen it all here, inside these cold dark walls

While living out my life behind bars



People come from all around and they sit down at my bar

‘Cause Ii serve every kind of whiskey, wine and beer

And each night at closing time, I count the money in my jeans

And it’s always just enough to keep me here





Chorus: I’ve seen faces come and go many lost and lonely souls

And the stories I could tell you would break your heart

Lord I guess I’ve seen it all here, inside these cold dark walls

While living out my life behind bars



Tag: I’m just living’ out my life behind bars
