My baby's done me wrong She took my love and's gone She left me only teardrops To cry while singin' this song
One thousand concrete blocks A cold, damp concrete floor Six iron bars on the window And a big black lock on the door
Wherever you may be I hope you're list'nin' to me Come back for I still love you Though you've been mean to me
(this verse is in the Billy Grammer cover replaced by: Her lover fell like a tree He just wouldn't listen to me If he had just found another Then I still would be free)
If you never return I have already learned To count the blocks made of concrete And wait for the lock to turn
