Lyrics:
It says here your from Houston Certified to drive a truck It didn't say what you've been doing The last five years Then I watched his eyes keep readin Then I watched his eyes look up And I watched another job I needed dissappear Cause when you get to the line Have you've been convicted of a crime They say Thanks for comming in And they don't call you back I aint asking for every job Under the sun I just want one, second chance On August 22nd, little Jacobs turning 5 But his momma moved him 1/2 a state away I left another message On the phone at home last night and She finally had her lawyer call today She knows I can't afford to take this thing to court And I'm trying hard to make her understand Well, I aint askin for every weekend Of every month I just want one, second chance I was young and I was stupid I regret it everyday I Aint saying I didn't do it But I paid for my mistakes It's a lost and empty feeling When they don't want you around Yea, I finally got the freedom But what good is it now? There are somedays when it feels like it's been 100 years Sometimes it seems like only yesterday We were painting Jacobs nursery Counting the days till he was here Next thing I knew I went and threw it all away Now I know I can't go back To the life I used to have When I stood and held the whole world in my hands I had a job I had a wife I had a son Now I just want one Second chance
