Well, I found this much of it...don't know if it's all of it or not....
IN THE GRAVEL YARD Malcolm Pulley
In the gravel yard, with a number for my name, Making little rocks out of big rocks all day. Oh, the work is mighty hard in the gravel yard. I'll never be a free man, so they say.
Warden, hear my plea. Listen now to me. I killed a man that I caught with my wife. You'd probably have done the same, so why am I to blame, Sentenced to the rest of my life?
In the driving rain with a ball and chain, My hammer rings a cold, mournful sound. It sings a little song for the one who done me wrong. He lies beneath the cold, cold ground.
