Come a good and come a bad times For a crime I'm doing time I was, but I plead not guilty For a while I thought they'd set me free But my baby stood by me Waiting at the gate for my release Everybody can envy How my love will stand by me
So my love will stand by me She'lll be waiting at the gate For my release Waiting now for five years I can not remember How we got together She was just a teenager Now she's a mother
