Alabama Department Of Corrections Meditation Blues Lyrics

I killed a man to get in here
And here I'll be for life
Hardest of the hardest men
Step aside when I walk by
I was born an angry man
This is all I know
I gave up on the human kind
A long, long time ago
Then one day a man came 'round
Put us to the test
Gonna sit right here and think a while

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e91710-kate_campbell~alabama_department_of_corrections_meditation_blues_lyrics.html ]
Like Jesus in the wilderness
I thought that man was crazy
Two days on and on
Three days in the walls came down
And all my pain was gone
A long time I was dying
Blind but now I see
Locked up here for all my days
I am finally free
Alabama here we rest
Live in light and peacefulness
