[00:00.75] It was Christmas in prison and the food was real good
[00:17.90] We had turkey and pistols carved out of wood
[00:22.83] And I dream of her always even when I don't dream
[00:28.88] Her name's on my tongue, her blood's in my stream
[00:34.72] Wait awhile, eternity
[00:38.46] Ole Mother Nature's got nothing on me
[00:43.59] Come to me, run to me, come to me now
[00:49.42] We're rolling my sweetheart, we're flowing by God
[00:55.03] She reminds me of a chess game with someone I admire
[01:22.72] Or a picnic in the rain after a prairie fire
[01:28.17] Her heart is as big as this whole goddamn jail
[01:34.57] And she's sweeter than saccharine at a drugstore sale
[01:40.50] Wait awhile, eternity
[01:44.10] Ole Mother Nature's got nothing on me
[01:49.43] Come to me, run to me, come to me now
[01:55.80] We're rolling my sweetheart, we're flowing by God
[02:01.34] The searchlight in the bigyard swings 'round with the gun
[02:28.54] And spotlights the snowflakes like dust in the sun
[02:34.52] It's Christmas in prison there'll be music tonight
[02:39.76] I'll probably get homesick, I love you, good night
[02:44.78] Wait awhile, eternity
[02:49.30] Ole Mother Nature's got nothing on me
[02:55.50] Come to me, run to me, come to me now
[03:00.40] We're rolling my sweetheart, we're flowing by God
[03:06.06]
