Tasty Tunes [Songs] - Covers

Lyrics:

This here is a song about life in prison
It's called ninety-nine years and one dark day
The ninety-nine years are the years you're in prison
And the one dark day is the day you die
And it's too bad for you...

I commited a crime many years ago
I shot my woman with a fourty-four
She had another man, wasn't in my head
I got ninety-nine years and one dark day

I’ve been in this prison twenty years or more
I shot my woman with a fourty-four
I’ll be right here till my dyin’ day
I got ninety-nine years and one dark day

Well the food is bad and the beds are hard
I spend all day breakin’ rocks in the yard
Well there ain’t no change, gonna stay that way
I got ninety-nine years and one dark day

Ain’t no singer that can sing a song
Ain’t no one saying that I ain’t wrong
His mind’s made up, gonna stay that way
I got ninety-nine years and one dark day

I never learned to read, I never learned to write
My whole life’s been one big fight
I never heard about the righteous way
I got ninety-nine years and one dark day

I remember a time many years ago
I shot my woman with a fourty-four
I’ll be right here till my dyin’ day
I got ninety-nine years and one dark day

I got ninety-nine years and one dark day
