Social Distortion Lyrics
"99 To Life"

I'm broken-hearted, I'm a broken man
Driven by anger on that night I ran
I had me a woman I thought she'd be true
But she'd gone and left me you know my life is through

[Chorus:]
Lonely weekends, baby,
Lonely nights
The judge he done gave me ninety-nine to life

I wish she could be here
Lord if she only could
Instead she's layin' in a puddle of blood
She was my baby
I thought she'd be my wife
I killed my baby
I killed her with my knife

[Chorus:]
Lonely weekends, baby,
Lonely nights
The judge he done gave me ninety-nine to life

Alone I sit here in my prison cell
The Lord only knows now I'm in a living Hell
The rest of my life now in this penitentiary
But the good Lord above now
"Please have mercy on me"

[Chorus:]
Lonely weekends, baby,
Lonely nights
The judge he done gave me ninety-nine to life
