Samson And The Warden

Once I got locked up in a dirty old jail[00:00:00]

And the coffee was cold & the cornbread was stale[00:00:05]

And I didn't cry I tried to be brave[00:00:10]

Till the warden tried to give me a haircut & a shave[00:00:14]

Warden you can hold me for a year in your jail[00:00:21]

But don't shave off my beard Don't cut my ponytail [00:00:26]

All you really found was some stems & some seeds[00:00:32]

I'll give you my earring & I'll give you my beads[00:00:38]

I don't mind wearing one o your prison suits[00:00:43]

I'll give you my bell-bottoms & my cowboy boots[00:00:47]

Don't shave off my beard Don't cut off my hair [00:00:55]

It took me two years to grow it & it just isn't fair[00:00:59]

Listen to me warden won't you listen to me beg[00:01:36]

Chop off a toe a foot or take a whole leg[00:01:41]

I'm down on my knees man you're robbing my strength[00:01:46]

Take it easy warden won't you leave me some length[00:01:51]

I want a lawyer warden I want a priest[00:01:56]

Oh take it easy warden leave the moustache at least[00:02:01]

The warden didn't hear a single word that I said[00:02:10]

He took off all the hair on my face & on my head[00:02:15]

But one day someone's gonna come[00:02:20]

And gonna put up my bail[00:02:22]

And I'm gonna walk out of this dirty old jail[00:02:25]

And the warden who's the reason I'm sheddin my tears[00:02:29]

I'm gonna mail him in a snapshot in two or three years[00:02:37]
