Merle and Me - David Allan Coe[00:00:00]
Back in 1953[00:00:26]
We stole a car old merle and me[00:00:29]
Never thinking wed be put in jail[00:00:32]
You might say that we were green[00:00:38]
I was barely seventeen[00:00:42]
When they put those bars between old merle and me[00:00:45]
Late one night we hit the wall[00:00:51]
Twenty feet we had to fall[00:00:54]
To the ground where we could craw into the weeds[00:00:58]
Waiting for that shotgun blast[00:01:04]
Never thinking we could last[00:01:08]
We sure had to grow up fast old merle and me[00:01:11]
We were young and crazy then[00:01:17]
It was easy to pretend[00:01:20]
Acting like wed never been in reform school[00:01:24]
Looking danger in the eye[00:01:30]
Walking with our heads held high[00:01:34]
We were not afraid to die old merle and me[00:01:37]
We were living by the gun[00:01:56]
Never caring what wed done[00:01:59]
Swearing it was all just fun and games you know[00:02:03]
We would die and go to hell[00:02:09]
Before we broke our vow to tell[00:02:12]
How we escaped that prison cell Old merle and me[00:02:16]
How was merle or me to know[00:02:22]
We would end up on death row[00:02:26]
Waiting for our turn in the electric chair[00:02:29]
Shot down in a grocery store[00:02:35]
We got busted at the door[00:02:38]
Praying wasn't easy for old merle and me[00:02:42]
We were young and crazy then[00:02:49]
It was easy to pretend[00:02:52]
Acting like wed never been in reform school[00:02:55]
Looking danger in the eye[00:03:02]
Walking with our heads held high[00:03:05]
We were not afraid to die old merle and me[00:03:08]
