Merle Haggard — I Wonder If They Ever Think of Me

[Verse 1] There's not much a man can do inside a prisoner Just take his memory trips and fights the pain And a word from home can mean so much to a prisoner It's been years since that last letter came [Chorus] Not a day goes by that I don't think of mama And my nights are filled with thoughts of sweet Marie And old friends I ran around with keep on running through my mind But I just wonder if they ever think of me [Verse 2] I wonder if they know that I'm still living And still proud to be a part of Uncle Sam I wonder if they think I died of hunger In this rotten prison camp in Viet Nam [Chorus] Not a day goes by that I don't think of mama And my nights are filled with thoughts of sweet Marie And I remember daddy saying you'll come back a better man And I just wonder if they ever think of me [Outro] Oh, I just wonder if they ever think of me
