paroles de chanson Ellis Unit One - Steve Earle
I
was
fresh
out
of
the
service
It
was
back
in
'82
I
raised
some
Cain
when
I
come
back
to
town
I
left
to
be
all
I
could
be
Come
home
without
a
clue
Now,
I
married
Dawn
and
had
to
settle
down
So
I
hired
on
at
the
prison
Guess
I
always
knew
I
would
Just
like
my
dad
and
both
my
uncles
done
And
I
worked
on
every
cell
block
now
'N
things
were
goin'
good
But
then
they
transferred
me
to
Ellis
Unit
One
Swing
low
Swing
low
Swing
low
and
carry
me
home
Well,
my
daddy
used
to
talk
about
them
long
nights
at
the
walls
And
how
they
used
to
strap
'em
in
the
chair
The
kids
down
from
the
college
and
they'd
bring
their
beer
'n
all
'N
when
the
lights
went
out,
a
cheer
rose
in
the
air
Well,
folks
just
got
too
civilized
Sparky's
gatherin'
dust
'Cause
no
one
wants
to
touch
a
smokin'
gun
And
since
they
got
the
injection
They
don't
mind
as
much,
I
guess
They
just
put
'em
down
at
Ellis
Unit
One
Swing
low
Swing
low
Swing
low
and
carry
me
home
Well,
I've
seen
'em
fight
like
lions,
boys
I've
seen
'em
go
like
lambs
And
I've
helped
to
drag
'em
when
they
could
not
stand
And
I've
heard
their
mamas
cryin'
when
they
heard
that
big
door
slam
And
I've
seen
the
victim's
family
holdin'
hands
Last
night
I
dreamed
that
I
woke
up
with
straps
across
my
chest
And
something
cold
and
black
pullin'
through
my
lungs
'N
even
Jesus
couldn't
save
me
though
I
know
he
did
his
best
But
he
don't
live
on
Ellis
Unit
One
Swing
low
Swing
low
Swing
low
and
carry
me
home
Swing
low
Don't
let
go
Swing
low
and
carry
me
home
