Bluegrass Songs - Lyrics www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
Twenty one years 
The judge said stand up boy and boy dry up your tears You're sentenced to Nashville for Twnenty one years They took him to Nashvill to pay for his crime Twenty one years boy is a mighty long time 
A year went by slowly he wished he was dead In the dirty old prison with the floor for a bed The girl who he loved and dreamed of each night He wrote her this letter saying why don't you wrote 
I counted on you dear to give me a break I guess you've forgotten, I'm here for your sake You know who is guilty you know it too well But I'll rot in this prison before I will tell 
Come all you young follows with hearts so true Don't believe any woman you're lost if you do Don't trust any woman no matter what kind For twenty one years dear is a mighty long time
