Cummins Prison Farm

I was born in Missouri, across the line from Arkansas
I was born in Missouri, across the line from Arkansas
Due I didn't make too much money, I got in trouble with the law

You know that's the meanest prison, down on Cummins Prison Farm
Lord the meanest prison, down on Cummins Prison Farm
You know I didn't know too much about it, I'm gonna tell you a little bit in this song

When I got down there first day, I found out they don't play
I got down there and first day, I found out they don't play
If you wake up early one morning, in a cold _____ on my grave

I said Warden I'll be a good man, if you release me from this pen
Shouting out Warden I'll be a good man if you release me from this pen
He looked at me with a strange smile, down here we've got a whole lotta good men

I'm talking about Cummins, down on Cummins Prison Farm
Down you know, Cummins oh no, down on Cummins Prison Farm
You know I didn't know too much about it, I'm gonna tell you a little bit in this song

Cummins, I'm talking about Cummins
I'm talking about Cummins, down on Cummins Prison Farm
You know I didn't know too much about it, I'm gonna tell you a little bit in this song
