Generate meaning
1
One day a friend took me aside
2
And said I have to leave you
3
For buying something from a friend
4
They say I've done wrong
5
For protecting the name of a man
6
They say I'll have to leave you,
7
So now I'm bidding you farewell
8
For much too long.
9
And here's a song to sing,
10
For every man inside,
11
If he can hear you sing
12
It's an open door.
13
There's not a rich man there,
14
Who couldn't pay his way
15
And buy the freedom that's a high price
16
For the poor.
17
Kids in Texas
18
Smoking grass,
19
Ten year sentence
20
Comes to pass
21
Misdemeanor
22
In Ann Arbor,
23
Ask the judges
24
Why?
25
One day a friend said to her kids
26
I'm gonna have to leave you
27
For selling something to the man
28
I guess I did wrong
29
And although I did the best I could
30
I'm gonna have to leave you
31
So now I'm kissing you farewell
32
For much too long.
33
And here's a song to sing,
34
For every man inside
35
If he can hear you sing
36
It's an open door.
37
There's not a rich man there
38
Who couldn't pay his way
39
And buy the freedom that's a high price
40
For the poor
