2061 Days
I was walking down a street in Atlanta
Down a shade-covered sidewalk one day
I passed by a house on the corner
With a sign on the front that did say
- My daddy's been a prisoner for 2061 days
And I haven't seen my daddy since I was five years of age
"He never came back with the others,"
Said a sweet, little blonde-headed girl
"We believe he's alive, me and mother;
We'll see him again in this world."
