99 To Life

(album: Somewhere Between Heaven And Hell - 1992)

I'm broken hearted, I'm a broken
Man. Driven by anger, on that
Night I ran. I had me a woman,
I thought that she'd be true.
Now she's gone and left me, you
Know her life is through.
[Chorus:]
Lonely weekends, baby lonely
Nights the judge he gave me,
Ninety nine to life.
I wish she could be here, Lord if
She only could, instead she's
Laying in a puddle of blood.
She was my baby, thought she'd be
My wife. I killed my baby, I killed
Her with my knife.
[Chorus:]
Lonely weekends, baby lonely
Nights the judge he gave me,
Ninety nine to life.
So alone I'm sitting in my prison cell
Lord only knows now, I'm in
A living hell, the rest of my life,
In this penitentiary, the good
Lord above now, please have
Mercy on me.
[Chorus:]
Lonely weekends, baby lonely
Nights the judge he gave me,
Ninety nine to life.
