[00:00:00] Life Of A Prisoner (Live) - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)

[00:00:00] Written by：Jimmy Lee W

[00:00:37] He drinks a cup of coffee and way before the sun he's up and goin'

[00:00:47] Out on a work detail

[00:00:49] Cause he knows soon the morning whistle will begin to blowin'

[00:00:57] All day out in that hot sun with no reward for any work he'll do

[00:01:07] And then he'll come back in the evening

[00:01:11] And dreams a lot of dreams that can't come true

[00:01:19] This is the life of a prisoner forgotten man that's there to stay

[00:01:32] He lives on faith and hope and courage and a few old dreams of yesterday

[00:01:45] Well no one cares about him or

[00:01:48] It seems at way to him as time goes by

[00:01:55] One day is like the other and every time he prays he prays to die

[00:02:05] He's been there for so long now

[00:02:08] He wouldn't know how to talk to men outside

[00:02:15] And though it's the life he lives for

[00:02:18] He fears the day the gates swing open wide

[00:02:26] This is the life of a prisoner forgotten man that's there to stay

[00:02:39] He lives on faith and hope and courage and a few old dreams of yesterday

[00:02:51] He lives on faith and hope and courage and a few old dreams of yesterday
