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?
Another friend said to her kids
I'm gonna have to leave you
For selling something to the man
I guess I did wrong
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?
Another friend said to her kids
I'm gonna have to leave you
For selling something to the man
I guess I did wrong
