Invisible Stripes [demo] Eddie Noack

[Verse 1]
They gave me a suit and a twenty dollar bill
When I left the penitentiary
Then they threw open wide those big iron gates
And they said they had rehabilitated me
But society doesn't feel the same
I guess I'm doomed for life
And they say I got no one but myself to blame
Because I wear invisible stripes

[Chorus]
Well, a twenty dollar bill won't buy me my fill
Of all the things I've wanted all my life
And a brand new double-breasted blue-[???] suit
Won't hide invisible stripes

[Verse 2]
No matter where I go, they say it ain't no go
They don't want an ex-convict around
So I'm broke all the time and they say that I'm
A menace to the decent people in town
The twenty dollar bill is in somebody's till
And the suit doesn't look brand new
It doesn't seem that fate is gonna let me go straight
With invisible stripes a-showing through
