Johnny Cash

Johnny Cash - San Quentin lyrics

San Quentin, you've been livin' hell to me

You (incomprehesible) en 'em die

And long ago, I stopped askin' why.

San Quentin, I hate every inch of you

You cut me and you scarred me through an' through

And I'll walk out a wiser weaker man

Mister congressman, you can't understand.

San Quentin, what good do you think you do?

Do you think I'll be different when you're through?

You bent my heart and mind and you may my soul

Your stone walls turn my blood a little cold

San Quentin, may you rot and burn in hell

May your walls fall and may I live to tell

May all the world forget you ever stood

And may all the world regret you did no good.

San Quentin, I hate every inch of you
