old richmond prison


Deep in the hills,Way down in virginia,
Was where I lived for 23 years
While driving one day,Just ridin for pleasure,
Just ridin for pleasure, I'd had a few beers
I shot the sheriff(sherf), of Buckinham county,
They threw me in jail Without any bail
They tried me, in Buckinham county,
For a crime that was done on the Dickenson side,

The jury came in, with a verdict on monday,
They said i was guilty and had to do time,
Eighteen years, in Old Richmond Prison,
Eighteen years, seems like 49

My thoughts go back, to my home in the mountains,
To Buckinham County, near the Dickenson line,
To Buckinham County, near the Dickenson line

Instead of Buckingham County, that should read "Buchanan County". Virginia has both, but Buckingham doesn't border Dickinson Co., Buchanon (pronounced BUCK-anon) does
