[Verse 1]
There's barbwire all around it, gates close after dark
Sun sets behind the towers, sometimes the times are hard
I’ve seen people make it out, I've seen a few come back and visit
Well, I've heard it called everything from hell to hometown prison
Well, hell, if this is prison
[Chorus]
Sentence me to life out here like them boys in Alcatraz
I’ll wear my last namе like a number on my back
Handcuff me to my roots, no, don't еver set me free
Lock me up in a small town, and throw away the key
[Verse 2]
No, I ain't tryin' to run, Ol' Red can get some sleep
I'm just fine doin' my time behind these old pine trees
Shackle and chain me
When I go, lay me, right here six feet deep
[Chorus]
Sentence me to life out here like them boys in Alcatraz
I'll wear my last name like a number on my back
Handcuff me to my roots, no, don’t ever set me free
Lock me up in a small town, and throw away the key
Away the key
There's barbwire all around it, gates close after dark
Sun sets behind the towers, sometimes the times are hard
I’ve seen people make it out, I've seen a few come back and visit

Well, hell, if this is prison
[Chorus]
Sentence me to life out here like them boys in Alcatraz
I’ll wear my last namе like a number on my back

Lock me up in a small town, and throw away the key
Away the key
