Lyrics
0:13Fifteen hundred miles is a long long way
0:17And I wish that I could be with you especially today
0:22Standing right beside me is a man with a gun
0:27And he's waiting for the chance to shoot me down if I should run
0:32'Cos I'm on the inside looking out
0:35And don't you know there's nothing I can do
0:47Yes I'm sitting on the inside looking out
0:52And I know that time is slowly running out
1:00I've been here for seven long years doing time
1:04And I just can't take much more of this I'm gonna lose my mind
1:10Standing close to me the warden looks me in the eye
1:14I can hear him saying Boy you're gonna be here till you die
1:19'Cos I'm on the inside looking out
1:22And don't you know there's nothing I can do
1:393rd verse
1:47As I write this letter there is something you should know
1:52It's to tell you I don't think that I am ever coming home
1:57So when you receive this note don't bother to reply
2:02'Cos I don't want you to waste your life the way I've wasted mine
2:06'Cos I'm on the inside looking out
2:09And don't you know there's nothing I can do
2:21'Cos I'm on the inside looking out
2:24And don't you know there's nothing I can do
Fifteen hundred miles is a long long way And I wish that I could be with you especially today Standing right beside me is a man with a gun And he's waiting for the chance to shoot me down if I should run 'Cos I'm on the inside looking out And don't you know there's nothing I can do Yes I'm sitting on the inside looking out And I know that time is slowly running out I've been here for seven long years doing time And I just can't take much more of this I'm gonna lose my mind Standing close to me the warden looks me in the eye I can hear him saying Boy you're gonna be here till you die 'Cos I'm on the inside looking out And don't you know there's nothing I can do 3rd verse As I write this letter there is something you should know It's to tell you I don't think that I am ever coming home So when you receive this note don't bother to reply 'Cos I don't want you to waste your life the way I've wasted mine 'Cos I'm on the inside looking out And don't you know there's nothing I can do 'Cos I'm on the inside looking out And don't you know there's nothing I can do
