May 28th In Folsom
Lyrics and Music by Robert Daniel Hart
@ All Rights Reserved
Verse 1:
Well it’s May 28th in Folsom,
And I’ve got to sing my song.
Yeah it’s hot as hell here in Folsom,
As the day drags on and on
It’s peach picken time Georgia, apple picken time in Tennessee
And its May 28th in Folsom, guitar picken time for me.
Bridge:
And I write-this song, for the convict,
Hope it won’t be long
Till they’re outside and they’re free again
When will it ever, ever end in Folsom?
Verse 2:
Well we’re do'in a fine show in Folsom
With a band called Country Road
Making the prisoners happy.
As they tote their heavy load.
We want you to know the feel’n
God knows we’re inside of you
And it’s May 28th in Folsom
Tell me what else can we do?
Bridge:
But sing our song.
Hope it won’t be long,
Till they’re outside and they’re free again
When will it ever, ever end in Folsom?
Tag:
Hope it won’t be long, long, long
Till we’re all outside and we’re free again
“God” will it ever, ever end in
Folsom Prison, Folsom Prison, Folsom Prison
Why we can even see the Gray Stone Chapel from here, ( Bringing in the Sheaves)
God Bless the convict not for what they did, but for the hell they’re going through for doing it.
