Got picked up last week, and I’m stuck in the pin,

And I know that I haven’t been the best son,
    C                         G
You can’t forgive for all the things that I done,
       G                        Am
But my attorney tells me that I got a good case,
   C                      G
So write me a letter, Ma, send me your grace,

And I hope that you and boys are doing just fine,

I’ve been stuck in county since that shit when down,
       G                 Am
And it might be a lot to inquire about,
                 C                              G
That you and the boys could pull some dough and help me get out,

Knowing you miss me whenever I’m gone,
         Am                     A7
With you all in my heart, is my only escape,
    D                    D7
And oh, how I wish for a loving embrace,

Well Mama, I haven’t heard from you in a while,
C                                    G
It’s been about a year but I’m still trying to smile,
G                          Am
I couldn’t pull bail and I lost in the case,
C                                G
And ain’t no one willing to help out in this place,
G                    Am

C                                   G
Cause I ain’t talked to no one ever since I’ve been gone,
G                             Am
And I don’t know if I’ll ever see you all again,
C                     G
I just want a family, I just want a friend,

Chorus:
G                  Am
Write me a letter, give me a call,
      C                    G
Cause I’ve been inside for way too long,
     G                     Am
With all of my sorrows and all my regrets,
C                     G
Write me a letter and help me forget.
