Arkansas State Prison
(originale)
Na Na NaNaNa
NaNa NaNa NaNa
I’ve served time
3 long years in Arkansas State Prison
To hear all about it
Come sit down and listen
I slaved the way
Pickin' cotton till I thought
My back was breakin'
3 meals a day
All I ate was black eyed peas
And long cold cornbread
It was a night near
The time I spent there
More than once I felt a climy hand
Upon my shoulder
Mr. Death was
Telling me that
I’d never get a minute over
I was man
I refused to bring along
With Memphis Red
I buffered the guise
Madden tres
Better left unsaid
He insisted
But I resisted
He wouldn’t stop --
I grabbed a shovel
And I opened up his head!
He wouldn’t stop --
I grabbed a shovel
And I opened up his head!
All the guards took a good look
At what I done
At what I done -- then hey said
Say your prize boy, your race
Has been the run
Just for kicks
They set me free
And they brought the dogs
To hunt me down
And then the rains came
And heeled my scent
And my hiding place was never found
I was one they never found
Oooh, I was one they never found
No one knows how many they list as missin'
Ohhhh
I lie in deep in the fields at the
Arkansas State Prison
(traduzione)
Na Na NaNaNa
NaNa NaNa NaNa
Ho scontato il tempo
3 lunghi anni nella prigione statale dell'Arkansas
Per sentire tutto al riguardo
Vieni a sederti e ascolta
Ho schiavato la strada
Raccogliendo cotone finché non ho pensato
La mia schiena si stava rompendo
3 pasti al giorno
Tutto quello che ho mangiato erano i piselli dagli occhi neri
