99 and Life



===========



I'm broken-hearted



I'm a broken man



Driven by anger



On the night I ran.



I had me a woman.



I thought that she'd be true.



Now she's gone and left me



You know her life is through.



Lonely weekends,



Baby, lonely nights,



The judge he gave me



99 and life.



I wish she could be here



Only if she only could



Instead she's laying



In a puddle of blood



She was my baby.



I thought she'd be my wife,



But I killed my baby



I killed her with my knife.



Lonely weekends,



Baby, lonely nights,



The judge he gave me



99 and life.



All alone I'm sitting



In my prison cell



The Lord only knows now



I'm in a living Hell.



The rest of my life now



In this penitentiary



The Good Lord above now



Please have mercy on me.



Lonely weekends,



Baby, lonely nights,



The judge he gave me



99 and life.



Lonely weekends,



Baby, lonely nights,



The judge he gave me



99 and life
