Lyrics Johnny Paycheck – 21 Miles To Lake Charles Prison
Text:
Oh momma I’m so thankful you came
It’s late and I hate about this rain
I know it’s hard on you but I don’t know what I’d do
If you weren’t here momma to walk me to the train
21 miles to Lake Charles Prison
A few more hours my life will cease to be
But I won’t mind that last mile I’ll walk it with a smile
As long as your sweet face is the last thing that I see
Oh how I wish I could turn back the pages of time
And rewrite those few minutes I went insane
Yes I took her for my wife and was forced to take her life
Now in chains I ride the Lake Charles Prison train
21 miles to Lake Charles Prison
13 men wearing balls and chains
But I’m richer by far than all of them together are
All because momma you walked me to the train
