Red Sun Songtext
von Johnny Shines

I been locked up so long
I don′t remember my mama's face
I been locked up so long
I don′t remember my mama's face
I'm gonna tell all you people
And part of the human race


I wish that big, big sun
Melt these prison walls all down
I wish that big, big sun
Melt these prison walls down
I give the rest of my life
For one good drunken town

I get so weary
Living from day to day
My heart gets so weary
From living from day to day
In here the work ain′t so hard
You just don′t get no pay


I wish that big, big sun
Would melt these prison walls aside
I wish that big, big sun
Would melt these prison walls aside
And then I could drift on away
And I would not have to hide
