john francis flynn - the lag song lyrics
when i was a young man, sometimes i’d wondered
what happened to time when it passed
then one day i found out that time lands in prison
and there it is held fast
when i was a young man, i used to go courting
i’d dream of the moon and the stars
well, the moon is still shining but the dreams are all broken
all over these iron bars
so look out your window, look over the rooftops
look over the wall, see the sky
with one flying leap, you could make your getaway
if only you could fly
the prison is sleeping, and the night watch is keeping
his watch over seven hundred men
and behind every cell door, there lies a lag dreaming
oh, to be free once again
so write me a letter, addressed to my number
but say you remember my name
remind me of the world outside
make me feel like a man once again
i’ve got time on my hands, i’ve got time on my shoulders
i’ve got plenty of time on my mind
there’s no summer nor winter when you land inside here
there’s only the old prison grind
