Lyrics
Folsom
(Verse 1)
I got a cot
And 3 hots
And a roof over my head
I did the crime
Doing time
I'll be here 'til I'm dead
(Verse 2)
Doing better
Than my brother
Who's out there livin' free
Lost his woman
And his job
Now he's wishing he was me
(Chorus)
Well--Prison ain't so bad
If it's all you've ever had
The best thing I ever did was a felony
I've been here since my birth
And I'll say for what it's worth
Folsom is a prison of luxury
(Verse 3)
Killing time
Ain't a crime
And it gets you through the night
Don't want a pardon
Or parole
That's something I will fight
(Chorus)
Prison ain't so bad
If it's all you've ever had
The best thing I ever did was a felony
I've been here since my birth
And I'll say for what it's worth
Folsom is a prison of luxury
(Bridge)
I'm kicking back in Folsom
No booze no drugs it's wholesome
Ain't got no debt don't need no pets
If they sold shares I would own some
(Verse 4)
In the prison
They have a band
And we play at 12 o'clock
Like Elvis
With his pelvis
We'll do the jailhouse rock
(Chorus)
Prison ain't so bad
If it's all you've ever had
The best thing I ever did was a felony
Yeah!
I've been here since my birth
And I'll say for what it's worth
Folsom is a prison of luxury
Prison of luxury--Yeah!
