The Man That I've Been

Lyrics

I spent my last two birthdays in the Travis County Jail
 Tomorrow I go up for life but I should go straight to
 Hell
 Hell's got no more room for me and it's got no more
 Time
 I should be confessin' all my crimes
 Four years ago my debt was piled high upon my mind
 And I devised a plan to rob a bank just to survive
 Oh, but when the gunsmoke cleared I saw two bodies on
 The ground
 Thirteen hours later I was found
 Chorus:
 Don't you feel any sorrow for the man that I've been
 'Cause in the waking of tomorrow
 They will find me full of sin
 I got news for you, I ain't as bad as they say
 I got news for you it looks like,
 That just don't matter today
 Well the verdict came and right away, "Guilty Indeed"
 99 to life is what I heard that jury
 Well, they thought they might impress upon me
 Crime it does not pay
 I ain't one for listenin' today
 As the years go by and by upon a shadowed ground I walk
 The people and the places of my past have now been lost
 The man that I've been is not the man I'd hoped to be
 Now it's too late to find the good in me
 Chorus 2x
 Ah, looks like it just don't matter today
