We can't spend our whole lives hiding Buck That ain't no way to live It is time to wipe the slate clean Ask the good Lord to forgive (forgive him Lord) You've gotta serve your sentence without fail. Buck, you are going back to jail What the hell are you talking about? Won't be scared to turn the corner Or to open our front door When you're on the side of justice you aint nervous of the law Now pull yourself together because you've gone pale Buck, you are going back to jail I know its hard To share a cell When you got nothing to look at except prisoners who smell But when you're done When you have served your time We'll still be young and in our prime. Ain't been free more than a minute Ain't had time to change my shirt I been dreamin' of a hot meal With you as my dessert Bring your face close to mine and just let me inhale Buck, you are going back to jail Now Baby We will call the sheriff and tell him you are turning yourself in right after church tomorrow Blanche It's going to be just as hard on me daddy, Well Stella you know what its like having a husband in jail, tell him how hard it is not having Carl around. Are you kidding? It's a treat to have my nails done, Have time to read a book, Sure beats washing out his long-johns It's a pleasure not to cook. That's enough Thank god those prison walls are much too tough to scale. My darlin's nice and safe in jail. I don't want her coming round here no more Trish's husband's been in jail for two years now and she is miserable without her man. At first I really missed him, I thought I would waste away Then I met this boy from Touson And he owns a Chevrolet He had a lot of things that my Joe lacked, Like teeth and hair and cash to be exact I've now got lots of habits I can't contain I've gotta keep him locked in jail Keep 'em inside, keep 'em inside If we see 'em once a month we will be more than satisfied Ain't that the truth, don't mean to be unkind Can't put a price on peace of mind. I aint like these other women I will wait till Kingdom come I want the world to see that I ain't married to some bum It will be hard for us but we'll come through I can't believe what you are asking me to do One thing's for certain our love won't go stale (Oh my Lord) (Jesus close your eyes) Blanche I aint going bck Yes Buck you're going back Tomorrow he'll be back in jail
