Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I ain't slept in seven days, haven't ate in three

Methamphetamine has got a damn good hold of me

My tweaker friends have got me to the point of no return

I just took the lighter to the bulb and watched it burn

[Chorus]

This life of sin (Life of sin)

Has got me in (Has got me in)

Well, it's got me back in prison once again

I used my only phone call to contact my daddy

I got twenty long years for some dust in a baggie

[Instrumental]

Well, if I would have listened to what mom and papa said

I wouldn't be locked up in prison, troubled in the head

Well, I took that little pop and sucked until my mind was spun

And I got twenty years to sit and think of what I've done

[Chorus]

This life of sin (Life of sin)

Has got me in (Has got me in)

Well, it's got me back in prison once again

I used my only phone call to contact my daddy

I got twenty long years for some dust in a baggie

[Instrumental]

Well, sometimes I sit and wonder where my little life went wrong

These old jailhouse blues have got me singing this old song

My life is a disaster, Lord, and I feel so ashamed

In here where they call me by a number, not a name

[Chorus]

This life of sin (Life of sin)

Has got me in (Has got me in)

Well, it's got me back in prison once again

I used my only phone call to contact my daddy

I got twenty long years for some dust in a baggie

[Instrumental]

I ain't slept in seven days, I haven't ate in three

This methamphetamine has got a damn good hold of me

And my tweaker friends have got me to the point of no return

I just took the lighter to the bulb and watched it burn

[Chorus]

This life of sin (Life of sin)

Has got me in (Has got me in)

Well, it's got me back in prison once again

I used my only phone call to contact my daddy

I got twenty long years for some dust in a baggie

I used my only phone call to contact my daddy

I got twenty long years for some dust in a baggie
