Oh he listens to the countdown

Every Sunday morning

From a cold solitary prison cell

And the music from his radio

is like freedom down a dirt road

Makes that eight by

ten a brighter hell

Before he started doing

all the hard time that he's doing

He was singing in them

honky-tonks and dives

He dreamed of being somebody

now he's number 37405

Well she used to come

and see him every other weekend

And bring him all the news

from way back home

It's been two birthdays

since he's kissed her

Five seconds since he's missed her

Now the perfume on those letters

ain't that strong

He's got too much time to think

about the night he had

too much to drink

And all his buddies

they begged him not to drive

Mr Life of the Party

is now number 37405

Old judge on the bench said

Son your crime's got consequences

It's what he told him

fifteen years ago

He took a life and that's a fact

He'd give his own to give it back

Today's the day

he finally gets parole

He turns in them prison clothes

And stands there

at the fork in the road

And mama prays

and waits while he decides

And the angels close their eyes

Listens to the birds sing

on a perfect autumn morning

Just down the road

rings an old church bell
