Lyrics

I ain't slept in seven days, haven't ate in three Methamphetamine has got a damn good hold of me My tweaker friends have got me to the point of no return I just took the lighter to the bulb and watched it burn
This life of sin has got me in Well it's got me back in prison once again I used my only phone call to contact my daddy I got twenty long years for some dust in a baggie
Well if I would have listened to what Mom and Papa said I wouldn't be locked up in prison, troubled in the head I took that little pop and sucked until my mind was spun I got twenty years to sit and think of what I've done This life of sin has got me in Well it's got me back in prison once again I used my only phone call to contact my daddy I got twenty long years for some dust in a baggie Sometimes I sit and wonder where my little life went wrong These old jailhouse blues have got me singing this old song My life is a disaster, Lord and I feel so ashamed In here where they call by a number, not a name This life of sin has got me in Well it's got me back in prison once again I used my only phone call to contact my daddy I got twenty long years for some dust in a baggie I used my only phone call to contact my daddy I got twenty long years for some dust in a baggie
