Lyrics of I made the prison band

Deep inside this lonely prison
Where the pleasures are so few
Where the walls are strong and the days are long
And there's nothin' new

I learned to play the guitar
And i'm doin' the best i can
I guess i could be worse
'cause i made the prison band
I made the prison band

Now there's ol' bashful bill on the doghouse base
Willie on the steel guitar
He hails from pocatello
And he drags a pretty mean bar

And back on the drums there's two-time tom
A rim shot tempo man
The boys call me their singin' emcee
'cause i made the prison band
I made the prison band

I'd been plannin' a break since christmas
I had the details all worked out
But now i know that i ain't gonna go
And there's no doubt

I had my try-out sunday
And the outcome changed my plans
I gotta rehearse for the friday night show
'cause i made the prison band
I made the prison band

Aah, aah there's ol' bashful bill on the doghouse base
Willie on the steel guitar
And he hails from pocatello and
And he drags a pretty mean bar

And back on the drums is two-time tom
A rim shot tempo man
The boys call me their singin' emcee
Since i made the prison band
I made the prison band
