lyrics

Angola
©2016 Robert Randall Burke

There's a place in Louisiana
Where people go and disappear
You better pray each night, boy
That you don't end up here.

They speak the name in whispers
Like a curse upon the wind
A place with no beginning
A place without an end.

Angola

Time is like
A tortured space
In which no one
Can see your face
Alone
Doin' life in a six-by-nine
Makes you lose all track of time
And home.

You have been forsaken
In a world of rusty bars
And chains you've worn three hundred years
Beneath the Southern stars

Angola

They don't need no fences here
Between the gators and the fear of dyin'
Once you broke a man real good
He loses every thought he had
Of tryin'

They speak the name in whispers
Like a curse upon the wind
A place with no beginning
A place without an end.

Angola
