[ Featuring
Jelly Roll ]
I went to college and I went to jail
One was a dorm room, one was a cell
Who came out on top? Hell, it's hard to tell
I went to college and I went to jail
We both grew up in the 615
Both sides of the train tracks
Had two different lives
Both sons of sinners, needing set free
We met at a party over big bags of weed
And I went to college, I went to jail
One was a dorm room, one was a cell
Who came out on top? Hell, it's hard to tell
I went to college and I went to jail
Well, I was supposed to go four years and quit after one
I was sentenced to seven but after four, I was done
Well, I burned all my books, I stayed up and read
I could've been a doctor, I should've been dead
And I went to college, I went to jail
One was a dorm room, one was a cell
Who came out on top? Hell, it's hard to tell
I went to college, and I went to jail
Well, who could've figured and who could've known?
We'd both wind up working down on music row
With ten years hard labor we've both paid our dues
I'm singing that country, I'm singing them blues
And I went to college, I went to jail
One was a dorm room, one was a cell
Who came out on top? Hell, it's hard to tell
I went to college and I went to jail
I went to college
And I went 448 2nd Avenue North of Criminal Justice Center
To jail
