Ninety-Nine (1959)
My mamma always told me better than to play with loaded guns
If I had just listened to her she'd a-never have a prisoner for a son
The pictures still in front of my eyes the echo in my ears
When the jury said he's guilty and the judge said ninety-nine years
So for ninety-nine years I'll watch the sunrise over the same old scene
Ninety-nine years nothing but an empty cell for company
Yet there's not very much that stands between me and the freedom I hold dear
Just a thousand bars, a big brick wall and a sentence of ninety-nine years
I kissed my darling on her tender lips and they took me by the hand
I had a nice little ride on the ferryboat to the rock where the prison stands
The warden said as he locked the door I hope you'll like it here

Just make yourself at home your gonna be with us for ninety-nine years
I almost forgotten what my real name is I've been a number for so long
Making little bitty rocks out of great big rocks gets old as the days wear on
But I'll do my best for ninety-nine years just try to stay alive
Cause the Governor said that if I was good I'd get out in ninety-five
Oh for ninety-nine years I'll watch the sunrise over the same old scene
Ninety-nine years nothing but an empty cell for company
Yet there's not very much that stands between me and the freedom I hold dear
Just a thousand bars, a big brick wall and a sentence of ninety-nine years
