Don't Know Why
Hello there it's been a while...
don't know why, just has.
Sorry to put you through this again...
don't know why, just am.
Got thrown in jail today...
don't know why, just did.
They say I'll do some time this time...
don't know, why just will.
Seen the judge today...
don't know why, just did.
He said twelve years to the day...
don't know why, just did.
Gonna miss ya all...
don't know why, I've had my fill.
And oh by the way...
was found dead today, don't know why, never will.
