Oh, when I saw her looking back at me
She fought me with a stare
That locked me up and had me beat
And all that time I didn't know what to say
I couldn't find the words
She took each every one away
I said 1 2 3 4
Get myself back off the floor
5 6 7 8 Count my luck 'cause it's never too late
All you said you needed was some time
I spent all these years and now I've had enough
All I've got is time
I gotta get this stone off of my neck
'Cause it's taken its toll
I've paid my debt
I've gotta roll
Oh When I got out of that ball & chain
I looked back at the gate
Thought I could rehabilitate
And all that time I thought I'd fall apart
They locked me in a cell
But they couldn't lock away my heart
I said 1 2 3 4
Get myself back off the floor
5 6 7 8 Count my luck 'cause it's never too late
All you said you needed was some time
I spent all these years and now I've had enough
All I've got is time
I gotta get this stone off of my neck
'Cause it's taken its toll
I've paid my debt
I've gotta roll
All you said you needed was some time
I spent all these years and now I've had enough
All I've got is time
I gotta get this stone off of my neck
'Cause it's taken its toll
I've paid my debt
I've gotta roll
