This is the room I see 12 hours a day
Here's a man who walks his life away
I wanted to be All the things that I never could be
No trouble, no strife
A big man in life
I hear the sounds of the big free world outside
I hear the nights as it slowly passes me by I knew it was wrong
They said it was easy,
yeah They gave me a gun
I shot somebody down Lord, Lord,
Lord, Lord,
Lord, Lord,
Lord,
Lord, Lord Oh Lord, please hear me crying
This is the room I see 12 hours a day
Here's a man who walks his life away
I wanted to be
All the things that I never could be
No trouble, no strife
A big man in life
I hear the sounds of the big free world outside
I hear the nights as it slowly passes me by
I
knew it was wrong
They said it was easy, yeah
They gave me a gun
I shot somebody down
Oh Lord, hear me crying
Sing this song, Lord
