True

False

Flase

False

Explanation:

The speaker in this song never suggests or says that he was unfairly imprisoned. He explicitly mentions the crime he was arrested for: "But I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die". This line demonstrates that he has no intention to hide his crime or to allege innocence.

He also shows that he is aware that he will be there for a long time: "I know I can't be free". This suggests that he has no intention to scape prison, the speaker is taking responsibility for his actions and accepting the punishment.

In other line, we can affirm he doesn't want to scape, he just dreams to be free by being released: "Well, if they freed me from this prison"
