Steve Miller - Harbor Lights lyrics

I can see the harbor lights Looks like the fourth of july Maybe christmas night Reflected in water In my cell, behind this wall I share my time With many a soul who is lost Why must i always be a loser Why can't i ever be a winner So as time Goes rolling by I lose my chance It's only one life If i had the wings of an angel O'er these prison walls i would fly Straight from the darkness into the light Why must i always be a loser Why can't i ever be a winner Spoken: my dearest darling, as i'm writing you this letter They're coming to take me away They're beginning to shave my head now, sweetheart But as their doing it I just want you to know That i wouldn't have it any other way I'm glad that i k**ed your mother She was a low-down dirty old hag But in the end darling You will get your revenge Because you see Their gonna send you my belongings In a plastic bag La, la, la A plastic bag
