Just Like A Prisoner Songtext / Lyric

by Eric Clapton



Just like a prisoner, he don't know right from wrong.

Just like a baby, he sings a pleading song

And that's why so many tears must fall.

Yes, that's why so many tears must fall.






Just like a sailor, he steers away from home.

He feels a tidal wave in his heart, but he ain't alone

And that's why so many tears must fall.

Yes, that's why so many tears must fall.



I'm like that prisoner, I don't know right from wrong.

Just like that baby, I sing a pleading song

And that's why you'll never know how I feel.

Yes, that's why you'll never know how I feel.
