GRAHAM NASH –
“PRISON SONG”
And here's a song to sing
For every man inside;
If he can hear you sing,
It's an open door.
There's not a rich man there
Who couldn't pay his way
And buy the freedom that's a
High price for the poor.
A classic from Graham Nash. Hear/see "Prison Song" music video with lyrics.
