D
Verse 1
D
Oh, the age of the inmates
G
D
I remember quite freely
No younger than twelve,
A
no older than seventeen
D
Thrown in like bandits,
G
D
cast off like criminals
G
D
Inside the grounds,
A
D
round the walls, a red wing
From the dirty old mess hall,
G
A
D
you march to a brick wall.
A
Too weary to talk and too tired to sing.
D
Oh, it's all afternoon,
G
D
A
D
you remember
G
D
Inside the grounds
A
D
round the walls of Red Queen
Oh the gates are cast iron
G
D
and the walls are barbed wire
Stay far from the fence
A
D
A
with electricity stained
D
And it's keep down your head
G
D
and stay in your number
G
D
On the inside grounds,
A
D
round the walls of Red Wing
Oh, it's fare thee well to the
G
D
deep hollow dungeon
Farewell to the boardwalk
A
D
A
that takes you to the screen
D
And farewell to the minutes
G
D
that threaten you with it
G
D
Inside the grounds,
A
D
A
D
round the walls of Red Wing
It's Minnie a guard
G
D
that stands around smilin'
A
Holdin' his club like he was a king
D
Hopin' to get you behind
G
D
the woodpiling
G
D
Inside the grounds
A
D
A
D
round the wall's red wing
The night aimed shadows
G
D
through the crossbar windows
And the wind punched hard
A
to make the wall siding sing
D
It's many a night I preten
G
D
ded to be sleepin'
G
D
On the inside grounds,
D
As the rain rattled heavy
G
D
on the bunkhouse shingles
And the sounds in the night
D
Tell the keys of the guards,
G
D
click the tune of the mornin'
G
D
On the inside grounds,
A
D
round the walls of Red Wing
All some of us will end up
G
D
in St. Cloud Prison
And some of us will wind up
A
to be lawyers and things
D
And some of us will stand
G
D
to meet you on your crossroads
G
D
From inside the grounds
A
D
around the walls of Red Wing
G
D
From inside the grounds
A
D
around the walls of Red Wing
