[00:00:00] Life in Prison - Merle Haggard

[00:00:00] Written by： Merle Haggard/J. Saunders

[00:00:16] The jury found the verdict first degree

[00:00:24] They swore I planned her death to be

[00:00:32] I prayed they sentence me to die

[00:00:39] But they wanted me to live and I know why

[00:00:46] So I do life in prison for the wrongs I've done

[00:00:55] And I pray every night for death to come

[00:01:01] My life will be a burden every day

[00:01:09] If I could die my pain might go away

[00:01:47] Insane with rage I took my darling's life

[00:01:56] Because I loved her more than life

[00:02:02] My dreams for her will last a long long time

[00:02:10] But I'd rather die than live to lose my mind

[00:02:18] But I've got life in prison for the wrongs I've done

[00:02:26] And I pray every night for death to come

[00:02:33] My life will be a burden every day

[00:02:40] If I could die my pain might go away

[00:02:48] If I could die my pain might go away
