"I Went To College / I Went To Jail" lyrics

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 6-1-5
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
