SINGER: Graham Nash

SONG:Prison Song

One day a friend took me aside
and said i have to leave you
for buying something from a friend
they say i've done wrong
for protecting the name of a man
they say i'll have to leave you,
so now i'm bidding you farewell
for much too long.
and here's a song to sing,
for every man inside,
if he can hear you sing
it's an open door.
there's not a rich man there,
who couldn't pay his way
and buy the freedom that's a high price
for the poor.

Kids in texas
smoking grass,
ten year sentence
comes to pass
misdemeanor
in ann arbor,
ask the judges
why?
One day a friend said to her kids
i'm gonna have to leave you
for selling something to the man
i guess i did wrong
and although i did the best i could
i'm gonna have to leave you
so now i'm kissing you farewell
for much too long.
and here's a song to sing,
for every man inside
if he can hear you sing
it's an open door.
there's not a rich man there
who couldn't pay his way
and buy the freedom that's a high price
for the poor
