I'm sitting here lonely like a broken man
I serve my time doin' the best I can
Walls and bars they surround me
But, I don't want no sympathy

No baby, no baby
All I need is some tender lovin'
To keep me sane in this burning oven
And, when my time is up, you'll be my reefer
Life gets worse on God's green earth
Be my reefer, got to keep smokin' that thing

No, no, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no, no, no

I said now baby, baby, let me smoke it, smoke it
Makes me feel good, feel good, yes, I feel good, ah
Yes, I feel alright, feel alright, yes, I feel alright, feel alright
Yes, I feel alright, ah
Oh

Ice cold water is runnin' through my veins
They try and drag me back to work again
Pain and blisters on my mind and hands
I work all day making up burlap bags

The oats they're feeding me are driving me wild
I feel unhappy like a new born child
Now, when my time is up, you wait and see
These walls and bars won't keep that stuff from me
No, no, baby
Won't keep that stuff from me

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no, no, no

I need you right now mama
I need you right now baby
Right by my side, honey
All my love

Make me feel alright
Yes, all, yes, all, yes, all, alright
You better come on up and get down with me
I'll make you feel real good, just you wait and see
Make me feel alright, yes, I feel alright
Yes, all, yes, all, yes, alright
