[00:03.90]Songs Title：the price you pay
[00:11.15]Theres a small jail in georgia you all know,
[00:14.59]
[00:16.27]Where the suns so hot and the daylight dont show.
[00:20.76]Where the moccasin she rests on a soft bed of sand,
[00:25.52]You can hear the hound dog howling out the land.
[00:30.64]It aint the way I wanted it.
[00:33.01]But lord thats the price you pay.
[00:40.33]I said jailer bring me water for my throat is dry,
[00:45.46]Four walls, steel bars, Ive been watching passersby,
[00:50.08]Ive been sitting here so long Im starting to cry,
[00:54.77]The hangmans coming, Im surely going to die.
[00:59.45]It aint the way I wanted it.
[01:02.41]But lord thats the price you pay.
[01:06.99]
[01:08.09]Oh, honk on it, boy,
[01:39.13]A little jail cell blues here.
[01:40.81]I shot a man in macon over a poker game,
[01:43.81]I killed another in atlanta just to build my fame,
[01:48.62]Well, now I hear the hammers theyre pounding out my name.
[01:53.45]It aint the way I wanted it.
[01:56.51]But thats the price you pay.
[01:58.76]It aint the way I wanted it.
[02:01.01]But lord thats the price you pay.
[02:08.64]Hey jailer, how about that water my throats still dry,
[02:13.89]Four walls, steel bars, Ive been watching passersby,
[02:18.39]Ive been sitting here so damn long Im starting to cry,
[02:23.14]The hangmans coming Im surely going to die.
[02:28.39]It aint the way I wanted it.
[02:30.57]But lord thats the price you pay,
[02:35.01]It aint the way I wanted it,
[02:40.46]But lord thats the price you pay.
[02:44.83]Oh, you done out of rope son. It aint the way I wanted it, But lord thats the price you pay.
