LYRIC FOR SALE

By G. Sallee

(Verse 1) I woke up this morning locked up in bars , looked in the mirror at a face full of scars , but oh... I swear Johnny's singing in Heaven. I should be depressed and full of self pity , I'm living in hell they call Michigan City , but oh... I swear Johnny's singing in Heaven. (Chorus Verse) Johnny's singing in Heaven but his heart is right here , looking down on this prison eyes full of tears , the man in black in that city of white , Lord you've created such a beautiful sight , and oh... I swear Johnny's singing in Heaven. (Verse 2) I have rusty water to splash on my face , go stand in line for slop thrown on my plate , but oh... I swear Johnny's singing in Heaven. I can hear that train coming around the bend , loved ones are praying I'll see freedom again , but oh... I swear Johnny's singing in Heaven.(Repeat Chorus Verse). (Verse 3) I may die here for something I didn't do , thank you dad for not naming me Sue , but oh... I swear Johnny's singing in Heaven. Its hard to explain my hearts reaction , when June stepped in on I'm going to Jackson , but oh... I swear Johnny's singing in Heaven. (Repeat Chorus Verse) Written by : E. Graylin Sallee
