jailbird - declan mclaughlin lyrics

[verse 1]
i got out last christmas after serving all my time
to a world that won’t forgive me though i’ve long paid for my crime
those prison guards were laughing as they opened up that gate
there was no one there to meet me, no reason to go straight
and it’s hard to swing a hammer when all you’ve known’s a gun
and you like that easy money ’cause it buys you so much fun

[verse 2]
i used to know this girl called trouble we used to shoot a little bit of coke
but you know these mixed*up orphan girls can never take a joke
she was always milk and honey someone to treat her good
i was just a junkie saving up to be a hood
’cause money buys you freedom and good drugs will get you friends
may the road rise up to meet you
may the party never end

[verse 3]
i kinda hoped she come and meet me cause i took all the blame
but i hear that she found jesus, i hope she’s born again
the devil brings a bottle and the good lord feels the pain
and drags you through these wicked streets back to his arms again
life is overrated and death is just a lie
jesus says he loves her but so do i
so do i
[verse 4]
down below the mission where the lights never go out
i heard somebody whisper and it sounded like your voice
you said you’d love me till you die
my little bird don’t you cry
we’ll sing a jailbird lullaby
we’ll sing a jailbird lullaby
we’ll sing a jailbird lullaby
