  Text skladby: Steve Earle-Ellis Unit One
I was fresh out of the service 'n it was back in ?82 I raised some Cain, when I come back to town I left to be all I could be, come home without a clue Now, I married Dawn and had to settle down
So I hired on at the prison Guess, I always knew I would Just like my dad and both my uncles done
And I worked on every cell block Now, and things're goin' good
But then they transferred me to Ellis Unit One
Swing low Swing low Swing low And carry me home
Well, my Daddy used to talk About them long nights at the walls And how they used to strap ?em in the chair
The kids down from the college And they'd bring their beer 'n all 'N when the lights went out A cheer rose in the air
Well, folks just got too civilized Sparky's gatherin' dust ?Cause no one wants to touch a smokin' gun
And since they got the injection They don't mind as much, I guess They just put ?em down at Ellis Unit One
Swing low Swing low Swing low And carry me home
Well, I've seen ?em fight like lions, boys I've seen 'em go like lambs And I've helped to drag ?em When they could not stand
And I've heard their mamas cryin' When they heard that big door slam And I've seen the victim's family holdin' hands
Last night I dreamed that I woke up With straps across my chest And something cold and black, pullin' through my lungs
?N even Jesus couldn't save me though I know He did his best But He don't live on Ellis Unit One
Swing low Swing low Swing low And carry me home
Swing low Don't let go Swing low And carry me home
