Lyrics:
Open up that window, I can't go through the door,
Open up that window, I can't go through the door,
I've been thieving in the evening,
To a girl that I knew before.
Come back from the country, don't you like me at all?
Come back from the country, don't you like me at all?
You've been gone so long,
Why don't you write me or call?
I doubled down on the devil one time, and I happened to win,
I doubled down on the devil another time and it happened again,
You say you'd rather be free,
I'd rather be back in the pen.
The way that it came, that'll be the way that it goes,
The way that it came, that'll be the way that it goes,
You say you want to be free,
I hate it it blows.
Open up that window, I can't go through the door,
Open up that window, I can't go through the door,
I've been thieving in the evening,
To a girl that I knew before.
