Jacob Green

[G]

J[G]acob Green got busted for possession
next morning early he appeared in c[D]ourt
But he was s[C]ent to jail to wait
to be trialed [G]at some later d[C]ate
Next [G]morning early, there came a sad rep[D]ort
At the [G]jail they took away his clothes to shame him
and to make sure Jacob Green had no pride [D]left
They [C]cut of all his hair
Today they [G]found him hanging [C]there
afra[G]id to face the [D]day he killed hi[G]mself

It h[C]appened yesterd[D]ay, and if you t[C]urn your head aw[G]ay
Somewhere in some dirty hole t[C]hat scene will be re[D]run
Not [C]only Jacob G[D]reen, but many [C]more you've never [G]seen
It could be someone that you [C]love gets [G]done
like J[D]acob Green got [G]done
It could be someone that you [C]love gets [G]done
like J[D]acob Green got [G]done

Jacobs father hired a team of lawyers
inspections and long inquiries were held
The sheriff then retired
and the papers said two guards were fired
They put a brand new coat of paint on Jacob's cell
But like a tomb that looks so white and shiny
inside you'll find corruption never seen
And somewhere out there tonight
In a dirty cell without a light
There will be locked up another Jacob Green

(End on [G])
