Life to Go Stonewall Jackson
I'[D]ve got a sad sad s[A]tory friends
that I[G] don't like to t[D]ell,
I[D] had a wife and [A]family
when they l[G]ocked me in a c[D]ell,
I'v[G]e been in here e[A]ighteen years,
That's a l[G]ong, long time I [D]know,
Bu[D]t time don't mean a t[A]hing to me,
'cause [G]I've got life to [D]go.
Well I went one night
where the lights were bright
just to see what I could see,
I met up with an old friend
who just thought the world of me,
Well he bought me drinks and took me to
every honky tonk in town,
Words were said, and now he's dead,
I just had to bring him down.
Well it's been a long long time now,
since I've heard from my wife,
I know I'd be there with her yet
if I hadn't used that knife,
Well I bet that little girl of mine
don't realize or know,
Her Daddie's been here eighteen years,
and still got life to go.
Well I'll bet there's not one man outside
who's spent this long in jail.
I'll be in this old prison
till my body's just a shell.
I can't be free to go and see
the ones that I love so.
I've been in her eighteen years
and still got life to go.
Yes I still got life to go.
Yes I still got life to go.
