Weighted Down (The Prison Song) - Alexander 'Skip' Spence

作词：Alexander Lee Spence

作曲：Alexander Lee Spence

Weighted down by possessions

Weighted down by the gun

Waited down by the river for you to come

My darling you're darning my action

Of when three months I was gone

But whose socks were you darning darling

While I been gone so long

Weighted down by possessions

Weighted down by the gun

Waited down by the river for you to come

A best friend to your ear of true said I was guilty of sin

Said my being gone was the best thing for you

But the truth it all comes through for me and my kin

It wasn't the best thing for me but was the best for him

Weighted down by decision

Weighted down by the gun

Waited down by the river for you to come

Weighted down by possessions

Weighted down by the gun

Waited down by the river for you to come

While I sat there wondering you thought that eyes were hid

And I had the honor of watching everything you did

So now I come with words of pain to bring you news of life

If you can't find your woman don't take another's wife

Waiting down by possessions

Waiting down with a gun

Waiting down by the river for you to come
