Just Like A Prisoner

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
Just like a prisoner, he don't know right from wrongJust like a baby, he sings a pleading songAnd that's why so many tears must fallYes, that's why so many tears must fallJust like a sailor, he steers away from homeHe feels a tidal wave in his heart, but he ain't aloneAnd that's why so many tears must fallYes, that's why so many tears must fallI'm like that prisoner, I don't know right from wrongJust like that baby, I sing a pleading songAnd that's why you'll never know how I feelYes, that's why you'll never know how I feel
