Merle Haggard - I Wonder If They Ever Think of Me Lyrics

There's not much a man can do inside a prison
Just take his memory trips and fights the pain
And a word from home can mean so much to a prisoner
It's been years now since that last letter came

Not a day goes by that I don't think of mama
And my nights are filled with thoughts of sweet Marie
And old friends I ran around with keep on running through my mind
And I just wonder if they ever think of me

I wonder if they know that I'm still living
And still proud to be a part of Uncle Sam
I wonder if they think I died of hunger
In this rotten prison camp in Vietnam

Not a day goes by that I don't think of mama
And my nights are filled with thoughts of sweet Marie
And I remember daddy sayin' "you'll come back a better man"
And I just wonder if they ever think of me
Oh, I just wonder if anyone thinks of me
