David I said as I lay on my bed

another years gone bye

your starting your parole in the morning they said

please tell her I'm alright



seven more years if only if she can hold on

seven more years and I'll be home again

david you got to tell her that I miss her

tell her I'll miss every day till then

but tell her it ain't so bad

and say you're my friend

say that I'm ok

and tell her too wate for me

and I'll be home again

getting home again

getting home again



david I said as he started to go

another years gone by

won't you write me some time

I'll miss you ,you know

but I'll make out alright



seven more years if only I can hold on

seven more years and I'll be home again

david you got to tell her that I miss her

tell her I'll miss her every day till then

but tell her it ain't so bad

please tell her my friend

say that I'm ok

and tell her to wate for me

and I'll be home again

getting home again

getting home again

getting home,getting home again

seven more years if only I can hold on

seven more years and I'll be home again

david you got to tell her that I miss her

tell her that I'll miss her every day till then

I only got seven more years

I only got seven more years

I know I got only got seven more lousy years

I only got seven more years

I only got seven more lousy years
