Johnny Cash - San Quentin Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • San Quentin, you've been livin' hell to me
  • You've hosted me since nineteen sixty three
  • I've seen 'em come and go and I've seen them die
  • And long ago I stopped askin' why
  • San Quentin, I hate every inch of you.
  • You've cut me and have scarred me thru an' thru.
  • And I'll walk out a wiser weaker man;
  • Mister Congressman why can't you 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,
  • And 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, you've been livin' hell to me.
