Merle Haggard — Walk On The Outside

[Verse 1] I've been in here so long I forgot what I did wrong Just a kid when they put me here inside I don't have long to live and, Lord, what I would give Mhm just to walk on the outside [Verse 2] Phones weren't even in when they put me to this pen And Dad told me planes would never fly There's a lot I've never seen except here on the screen Lord, give me a walk on the outside [Verse 3] Now Lord, I'm not complainin' But I've walked at least a million miles behind these walls I'd just like to see what's on this other side, that's all There's a lot I've never seen except here on this screen Lord, Lord, give me a walk on the outside [Outro] There's a lot I've never seen except here on this screen Oh Lord, Lord, give me a walk on the outside
