I've been living in a cold cool beer house by myself
By then the sun don’t ever shine
It's been a low down place I mean disgrace
Way you've got me doin’ tight

They got to broke these lonely chains I'm in
I swear by stars above
I do not want to use have to do to got your love

It's a poor man's prison baby
It's been a hard long lonesome tine
Darlin' can't you see that you can't set me free
’Cause your love I can’t get it out of my mind

There's four stone walls surround me
And cobweb’s round my head
You know that I'm weak I just can't sleep
I guess I dispel me dead

You know such a drag without you baby
[?] all alone
And I just can't take it too much lone
Baby won’t you come back home

I mean it's a poor man's prison baby
It's been a hard long lonesome time
Darlin' can't you see that you can't set me free
'Cause your love I can't get it out of my mind
They got to broke these long chains I'm in
I swear by stars above
I try to do and I used gonna have hard
And have to do to got your love

It's a poor man's prison baby
Do, do, do, do, do
I can do it all by myself
Do, do, do, do, do
