I spent sometime in a jailhouse den
Got arrested, put my ass in stir
I lost all contact with the outside world
I shot a man in self defense
Dead on the ground with a bullet in his head
They locked me up and they put me away
I count the days till I'm on parole
I'm an innocent man
I'm an innocent man
With blood on my hands
Chucked me in a cell with a ball and chain
For 29 years, 2 months and a day
I served my time now I just want break out
I count the days till I'm on parole
I'm an innocent man
I'm an innocent man
I'm an innocent man
I'm an innocent man
With blood on my hands
I spent sometime in a jail house den
Got arrested, put my ass in stir
I lost all contact with the outside world
I'm an innocent man
I'm an innocent man
I'm an innocent man
I'm an innocent man
With blood on my hands
