I have a sad, sad story that I don't like to tell
I had a wife and family, they locked me in the cell
I've been here eighteen years, it's a long time I know
Time don't mean a thing to me, but I still got life to go
I went out one night when the lights
Are bright to see what I could see
I ran into a friend of mine who thought the world of me
He bought me drinks and took me to every honky tonk in town
Words were said and now he's dead, I just had to bring him down
ย
It has been a long time now since I've heard from my wife
I'd probably be there with her still if I hadn't used the knife
And my little girl doesn't realize or know
Her daddy's been here eighteen years, he's still got life to go
ย
I bet there's not one man alive who's been this long in jail
I'll be locked here in this prison 'til my body's just a shell
I can't be free to go and see the ones that I love so
I've been here for eighteen years, I still got life to go
Yes, I've still got life to go, I still got life to go
