Back Home in Huntsville Again

Open the gates up hey screw did you miss me Jimmy I see that you found a new friend Warden come down here and kiss me hello cause I'm back home in Huntsville again This suit that I'm wearing cost two hundred dollars But I got it free with a three dollar knife I got tailor made shirts with them long pointy collars And all it's gonna cost is ten years of my life So open the gates up... I've been rousted and turned out at three in the morning I've been roughed up and shook down and stood on my ear I've tried to find work but they called me a jailbird So I went for the bundle and I've wound up back here So open the gates up... I found me a woman as warm as the sunshine took her a year to slip out of her dress She talk about havin' a little rose covered cottage But roses cost money and you know the rest So open the gates up... Yes I'm back home in Huntsville again --- Back Home in Huntsville Again - Bobby Bare
