Letra de Son of a Prison Guard
There was a mountain on the table of bills that needed paidDishes in the kitchen sink like dreams that never fade A wild imagination of convicts in the yardNever enough time to make ends meet So they put it on a credit card, don't we all?You may not know just where you came from, but once upon a time There was a carpenter, a bartender, a broken fishing lineJust south of Royal Teeth in the town that I came from There were architects and astronauts But the only one she loved was a prison guardAnd that's the only time I ever saw true loveAnd Erica's a girl I liked in Georgia Alone and kept me warm in EugeneI guess my mother loved too hard Set the bar too high to the sky What's fine enough to me is just too hard For a son of a prison guardThere's a gate that needed painting, clothes that needed clean They'd say there's time enough for that when the fun has all been seen'Cause when we're laying on our deathbed, a promise we won't say Wish we would have worked more, baby Instead of loving you that way, no wayAnd that's the only time I ever saw true loveSegourney is a girl I met in Brooklyn Herris got me close in New OrleansI guess my mother loved too hard Set the bar too high to the sky What's fine enough to me is just too hard For a son of a prison guardI go wherever you are, whoever you are I go wherever you are, whoever you are I go wherever you are, whoever you are I go wherever you areBetty is a girl I knew in Charlotte left for Sydney yesterday I guess my mother loved too hard Set the bar too high to the sky What's fine enough to me is just too hard For a son of a prison guardWhoever you are By Malek Dakhoul
