It's been seven long years since I first left this town
A woman and a life I loved so
Seven long years in some hole in the ground
An iron cage I called my home
There was barbed wire all around my home
I got laid off one winter, and I couldn't find work
So I planted a little weed on the side
The authorities, they rewarded me
With seven years on the inside
In seven years time I died
Well, now my baby's married and she's got three kids
Now ain't that a kick in the head?
She says she don't care if I die or I live
But I feel like I'm already dead
I feel like I'm already dead
ย
There's no one I know in this town anymore
They never shook the effects of the war
And I'm only lost to put a hole in a car
'Cause I don't live there no more
I'm not of this world anymore
