Barres de la Prison Lyrics by Buddy Miller

The Majestic Silver Strings

2011

[Barres De La Prison]
Good-bye, chere vieille Mom
Good-bye, pauvre vieux Pop
Good-bye, a mes freres, et mes cheres petites soeurs
Moi, j'ai ete condamne
Pour la balance de ma vie
Dans les barres de la prison

Moi, j'ai roule
Je m'ai mis a malfaire
J'avais la tete dure, j'ai rentre dans le tracas
Asteur je suis condamne
Pour la balance de ma vie
Dans les barres de la prison

Ma pauvre vieille maman
Elle s'a mis sur ses genoux
Ses deux mains sur la tete en pleurant pour moi
Elle dit, "Mm-mm
Cher petit garcon Moi
Je vas jamais te revoir
Toi, t'as ete condamne
Pour la balance de ta vie
Dans les barres de la prison"

J'ai dit, "Chere vieille maman
Pleure pas pour moi
Faut tu pries pour ton enfant pour essayer de Sauver son ame
De les flammes de l'enfer"

[Prison Bars]
Good-bye, dear old mom
Good-bye, poor old pop
Good-bye to my brothers and my dear little sisters
I've been condemned
For the rest of my life
Behind the prison bars

I rambled around
I got into doing wrong
I had a hard head, I got into trouble
Now I'm condemned
For the rest of my life
Behind the prison bars

My poor old mama
She got down on her knees
Her two hands on her head, crying for me
She Said, "Mmm, dear little boy
I'll never see you again
You've been condemned
For the rest of your life
Behind the prison bars"

I say, "Dear old mother, don't cry for me
You must pray for your child to try to save his soul
From the flames of hell"
