I went to college
And I went to jail
One was a dorm room
One was a cell
Who came out on top?
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
Needin' 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?
It's hard to tell
I went to college
And I went to jail
Well, I was supposed to go four years
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 coulda been a doctor
I shoulda 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?
It's hard to tell
I went to college
And I went to jail
Who coulda figured?
And who coulda known?
We'd both wind up workin'
Down on Music Row
With ten years hard labor
We've both paid our dues
I'm singin' that country
I'm singin' 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?
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
A criminal justice center
To jail
