Lyrics:
Well, them four walls of Raiford closing in on me Doin' three to five hard labor for armed robbery I had two years behind me, but I could not wait the time Every time I thought about it, well, I died some more inside And I had stripes on my back; memories that hurt For the only time I seen sunshine is when I get to work Diggin' ditches for the chain gang; sleepin' in the cold Oh, Lord, please forgive me for I could not wait no more And I comin' home to see you, Jesus - well, it feels so close this time Please take mercy on a soldier from the Florida-Georgia line When they find me they must kill me - oh, Jesus, save my soul I can't go back down to Raiford - I can't take that anymore These last few years behind me, oh Lord, have been so sad I fought proudly for my country when the times were bad Now they say I'm guilty - when they find me I must die Only me and Jesus know that I never stole a dime Well, when Vietnam was over there was no work here for me I had a pretty wife awaitin' and two kids I had to feed Well I'm one of America's heroes When they shoot me down won't you fly old glory proudly? Put my medals in the ground And I comin' home to see you, Jesus - well, it feels so close this time Please take mercy on a soldier from the Florida-Georgia line When they find me they must kill me - oh, Jesus, save my soul I can't go back down to Raiford - I can't take that anymore
