CANNERY ROW (J Christie)

Ist verse
I was born, I was born
On the bad side of the track
I grew up, I grew up
In a burned-out rusty shack
I was raised, I was raised
By the leader of the pack
I was schooled yeah, I was schooled
With a strap right across my back

Chorus
You know it's alright now
I learned my lesson well
I finally broke that spell
Now I ain't never going back
to Cannery Row

2nd verse
Mama died, mama died
And my daddy lost his mind
Well I cried, yes I cried
When my daddy said goodbye
Well I tried, yes I tried
But I could not stop the pain
So I ran yes I ran
Through the thunder and the rain

Chorus
Well it's alright now
I learned my lesson well
Just like a bat loose out of hell
I ain't never going back
to Cannery Row

Bridge
Cannery Row
Won't you take these chains from me
Cannery Row
It's such a painful memory
I want to jump and shout
So glad I'm out
It's over now
You know it's over now
