|
I'm a long, long way from where I want to be |
|
In the Arizona prison they've got me |
|
And until they set me free, oh, oh, me |
|
It's a long, long way from here to Tennessee. |
|
Oh, my mouth is dry with dust my throat is raw |
|
How I miss those big green trees in Arkansas |
|
On the way to where I'll be when they set me free |
|
But it's a long, long way from here to Tennessee. |
|
A long, long way from me to the girl that I love so |
|
Will she wait for me oh Lord I don't know |
|
I know that I've done wrong but friends I've paid the price |
|
Back in Tennessee I left sweet paradise. |
|
But until they set me free, oh, oh, me |
|
It's a long, long way from here to Tennessee. |
|
It's a long, long way from here to Tennessee. |
|
It's a long, long way from here to Tennessee... |
