Текст песни Arkansas State Prison - Bobby Womack

Na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na

I′ve served time three long years in Arkansas State Prison
Want to hear all about it?
Come sit down and listen

Slaved away
Pickin' cotton ′til I thought my back was breakin'
Three meals a day
All I ate was black eyed peas and long cold cornbread

'Twas a nightmare
The time I spent there
More than once, I felt a clammy hand upon my shoulder
Mr. Death was
Telling me that I′d never get a minute older

I was a man
I refused to bring along with Memphis Red
I buffered the guards
Bad entries
Better, better left unsaid

He insisted
But I resisted
He wouldn′t stop
I grabbed a shovel, and I opened up his head!

He wouldn't stop
I grabbed a shovel and I opened up his head!
All the guards took a good look at what I′d done
At what I'd done
Then they said
"Say your price boy, your race has done been the run
Just for kicks"

They set me free, and they brought the dogs to hunt me down
And then the rains came
Hid my scent
And my hiding place was never found
I was one that they never found
Ooh, I was one that they never found

No one knows how many they list as missin′
Oh, I lie in deep in the fields of Arkansas State Prison
I was one that they never found
