Black Crow

Black crow laughin' on a fenced porch
 Far as I can tell
 There gotta be some' behind me, Lord
 'Cause I feel I'm doin' well
 I ain't been stayin' up late
 Makin' folks wait, like I've done before
 For me to get on track
 Make up for what I lack
 Black crow, I ain't a joke no more
 ♪
 Cold, cold empty home
 What's a man to do when he ain't got no dough?
 And his door's been kicked in
 By the damn tax man two days ago
 Well, he gets a case of the fools
 Wants to break all the rules
 So he pulls out his gun
 Corner store's a good aim to make a little change
 But it's a shame to blame an innocent one
 Lord, I can feel them spirits pullin' me down
 And a hundred and ten in the pen is a long time
 When you did no crime
 They got the wrong man on that chain
 A hundred and ten in the shade where I stand
 I'm a different man
 ♪
 I guess I'll say old crow
 It is funny how it goes, I do confess
 What good is freedom outside these walls
 If you're livin' dead
 I'm gonna pay my dues
 Make up no excuse like I did before
 Make it right with the Lord
 I told the sheriff so
 Black crow, I ain't a joke no more
