I've been in here so long I forgot what I did wrong   Just a kid when they put me here inside   I don't have long to live and Lord, what I would give   Just to walk on the outside      Phones weren't even in, when they put me in this pin   And dad told me, he, he, planes would never fly   There's a lot I've never seen except here on this scene   Lord, give me a walk on the outside      Now Lord I'm not complainin' but I've walked   At least a million miles behind these walls   I'd just like to see what's on this other side, that's all      There's a lot I've never seen except here on this scene   Lord, give me a walk on the outside   There's a lot I've never seen except here on this scene   Lord, give me a walk on the outside
