Stone Walls and Steel Bars

CUSTOM

[Verse 1] I've been here for so damn long that it almost feels like home Steel bars and these cold walls and nowhere to be alone Sometimes I think I'm going nuts from things inside my head But in retrospect, I guess that I'm just lucky that I ain't dead [Chorus] But it's too far gone to worry about and I've had my judgment day I said I'm one step up and over the line and my debts have all been paid I said I've been cast out and criticized for so long now my friend I said I don't want heaven 'cause I've been to hell but I'm never going back again [Verse 2] Well tomorrow morning they'll open these gates and they'll set this cowboy free But I won't look back when I walk out 'cause they've seen the last of me And I'll never be president but I'd change some things my friend You see too many rules can make outlaws out of good-hearted family men [Chorus] But it's too far gone to worry about and I've had my judgment day I said I'm one step up and over the line and my debts have all been paid I said I've been cast out and criticized for so long now my friend I said I don't want heaven 'cause I've been to hell but I'm never going back again [Outro] I said I don't want heaven 'cause I've been to hell but I'm never [fade to black on last guitar strum] Going back again
