George Jones - Still Doin' Time Lyrics






Has it been a year, since the last time I've seen her
My God, I could swear it was ten
And the ocean of liquor I drank to forget her
Is gonna kill me but I'll drink 'til then

I've been living in hell with a bar for a cell
Still paying for my cheating crime
Oh, And I've got a long way to go
Still doin' time

[Chorus:]
Still doin' time
In a honky tonk prison
Still doin' time
Where a man ain't forgiven
My poor heart is breaking
But there's no escaping
Each morning I wake up and I find
Still doin' time

Oh when your caught me cheating twice
It's twenty to life in a place
Where the sun never shines
And tomorrow you're gonna find me right here
Still doin' time

[Chorus:]
Still doin' time
In a honky tonk prison
Still doin' time
Where a man ain't forgiven
My poor heart is breaking
But there's no escaping
Each morning I wake up and I find
Still doin' time

Still doin' time...

    Back in late 70s or early 80s my ole man was in a bar in Ms, or Alabama , it was close to the coast.
    Pops told my mom he was hanging out with George in a bar (she didn't believe him).
    He was in heavy construction (his trucks were beat to hell). Long and the short (job was over) my pops and mom were headed up the interstate headed back home on I-65. a limo passed them and George popped up out the sun roof and started doing double finger pistols at my ole man. Mom said pops did a pistol finger at George.

    Both of them were hell on wheels. It's an honor to know one of them . Lord knows, I listened to the MAN when he was here . Wish I had spent less time arguing with him. Now all I have is a 5 year old voicemail.
    ........ that's all I have to say about that.
