John Denver Lyrics

"Prisoners (Hard Life, Hard Times)" lyrics


Josie works a counter at the downtown five and dimeAnything at all to help her pass the time
Her mama keeps the baby and grandpa rambles onAbout the good times playing in his mind
It's a hard life livin' when you're lonelyIt's a long night sleepin' aloneIt's a hard time waitin' for tomorrowIt's a long, long way home
Josie spends the evening with the people on the pagesOf the paperback she picked up at the store
Or sometimes it's the TV or she'll try to write a letterWo! they don't come too often anymore
It's a hard life livin' when you're lonelyIt's a long night sleepin' aloneIt's a hard time waitin' for tomorrowIt's a long, long way home

I stare at the gray walls before meI see her face in the dawnI try to imagine our babyI wish they would let me go homeI wish they would let me go homeI wish they would let me go home
It's a hard life livin' when you're lonelyI wish they would let me go homeIt's a long night sleepin' aloneI wish they would let me go homeIt's a hard time waitin' for tomorrowI wish they would let me go homeIt's a long, long way homeI wish they would let me go homeIt's a long, long way homeI wish they would let me go homeBring me and the other boys homeI wish they would let me go homeBring me and the other boys homeI wish they would let me go homeBring me and the other boys home
