I Refuse To Lie Down

Words and music by jimmy nall



One day at a time

That's how i live my life today

One glimpse at the sun

And i was blinded by the light

What a price i was to pay



Each morning i rise

And i pray to god above

That one day i will return

To the world i left behind

To the people that i love



It's been ten years, maybe more

Since i've been locked behind this door

And by rights i should be free



You can take a man, break his will

Make him bad, give him time to kill

But you can't do that to me

I'm an innocent man



And i refuse to lie down

I refuse ta lie down



They put me in a place

Where the sun refused to shine

They took away my soul

But my memories remained

Of that once-upon-a-time



One day at a time

That's how i live my life today

Still searching to find

A single word ihat fits the lock

To turn the key to set me free



And i refuse to lie down

I refuse to lie down
