Testo di Penitentiary

I hid a batch in Frisco I couldn't score a job So I did the next best thing and I learned how to rob I took that train to Houston But I couldn't get away From the five and dime about the time The constable would say Come on down To the penitentiary Oh, mommy the law came crashing down on me Playing stud in the evening The solitary night Leon has the cigarettes and Capone has got the light Now I'm shifting squares with a man from Arkansas He took my rook oh lord and my kings about to fall Come on down To the penitentiary Oh, mommy the law came crashing down on me And I'm calling from a pay phone Down around Lawrence bend Got me a pardon son Gonna do it all again Come on down To the penitentiary Oh, mommy the law came crashing down on me Come on down To the penitentiary Oh, mommy the law came crashing down on me
