There are men lost in jail,
crowded 52 room
There's journey wrapped
in a cage of a world
C 
G

Am 
they sit home and write letters
G 
Then they visit once a year
C 
When they both just sit there and stare

About kids on a chick blitz
with no shoes on their feet

Now that highway is coming through
So we all gotta move
This bottom rung ain't no fun at all
C 
Cause now farms and rock houses

Are the new trinity
C 
For this so -called community

See how we are
C 
Gotta keep bars out of our windows
