Have you heard the dogs at night
Somewhere on the hill
Chasin' some poor criminal?
And I guess they're out to kill
Oh, there must be shackles on his feet
And mother in his eyes
Stumblin' through the devil dark
With the hound pack in full cry

Have mercy on the criminal
Who is runnin' from the law
Are you blind to the winds of change?
Don't you hear him any more?
Prayin' Lord, "You gotta help me"
"I am never gonna sin again"
"Just take these chains from around my legs"
"Sweet Jesus, I'll be Your friend"

Now, have you ever seen the white teeth gleam
While you lie on a cold damp ground
You're takin' in the face of a rifle butt
While the wardens hold you down
And you've never seen a friend in years
Oh, it turns your heart to stone
You jump the walls and the dogs run free
And the grave's gonna be your home

Oh
Have mercy on the criminal
Who is runnin' from the law
Are you blind to the winds of change?
Don't you hear him any more?
Prayin' Lord, "You gotta help me"
"I am never gonna sin again"
"Just take these chains from around my legs"
"Sweet Jesus, I'll be Your friend"

Oh
Have mercy on the criminal
Who is runnin' from the law
Are you blind to the winds of change?
Don't you hear him any more?
Prayin' Lord, "You gotta help me"
"I am never gonna sin again"
"Just take these chains from around my legs"
"Sweet Jesus, I'll be Your friend"
