When Texas Set Prisoners Free

Edna Horton

When A Prisoner Is set Free Before He Should Be

Therefore, it came about In The '80's in

Texas they let some prisoners out.

The jails were overcrowded

The criminals had no place to sleep so,

They opened up the cell doors

They just let them go

Even the ones on death row

They opened up those doors and just let

Them go.

One in particular killed again

Taking a beautiful girl from her

Family and friends.

However, it was nothing new

He had done it before it

Was the reason he came to be

On death row.

The man had been granted

Three stays, and because of this

In the '80's they let him out

There was no place -for the criminals

To sleep so they let a murderer go

Let him go to kill again.
