In Chains

Daddy why do they keep you in chains Why won't you come home Their going to send me away Why do they keep you in chains Son I killed a man Cut him down dead Watched his life float away Now I got to pay For what I've done I hope you will forgive me I will always love you But now you must forget me You've got a new family now Oh god I miss my boy God keep him safe Don't blame him for what I've done Don't let him turn out like me Oh god I miss my daddy Why do they keep him in chains I'm scared of the dark I want my daddys hand God keep him safe God forgive my sins Keep my boy safe God I miss my daddy Why do they keep him in chains Daddy come home God I miss my boy Son I'm going to miss you Don't do like I have done One day you'll have a son Don't do like I have done My daddys not coming home God keep him safe
