Spending my time living life behind bars
Ain't doing hard time, but the times get hard
Didn't come wearin' cuffs in the back of some car
No judge, no jury ever put me here
♪
Got a story to tell ya
A bunch of songs and there ain't nothing 'bout no rock and roll
Sold my soul to the devil
A pocket full of songs, for a handful of gold, uh-uh-uh
Uh, that was the day that everything changed
Spendin' my time livin' life behind bars
Ain't doing hard time, but the times get hard
Didn't come wearing cuffs, in the back of some car
No judge, no jury ever put me here
Still payin' this price for the life I choose
Once you got a record, guess it's how it goes
Still serving my sentence, with this old guitar
Spendin' my time livin' life behind bars

Done a few nights locked up in county
Did the time, paid the fine, then they let me go
But this ain't that kind of party, no jail, no bail
In hell no parole
Spendin' my time livin' life behind bars
Ain't doing hard time, but the times get hard
Didn't come wearin' cuffs, in the back of some car
No judge, no jury ever put me here
Still payin' this price for the life I chose
Once you got a record, guess it's how it goes
Still servin' my sentence, with this old guitar
