Riot in Cell Block#9 |
| On July the second, 1953 |
| I was serving time in Tahatchopee |
| Four o’clock in the morning |
| I was sleepin' in my cell |
| I heard a whistle blow |
| And I heard somebody yell |
| There’s a riot goin' on |
| There’s a riot goin' on |
| There’s a riot goin' on |
| Up in cell block number nine |
| The trouble all started up in cell block #4 |
| It spread like fire across the prison floor |
| Warden came in with a big tommy gun |
| Bang-bang-bang, tryin' to stop our fun |
| The warden said, come out |
| With your hands up in the air |
| If you don’t stop this riot |
| You’re all gonna get the chair |
| Two-gun Mathilda said |
| It’s too late to quit |
| Pass the dynamite Molly |
| 'Cause man, this fuse is lit |
| They called the state militia |
| To help them win the fight |
| Drove up to the prison |
| In the middle of the night |
| Each and every trooper |
| He looked so tall and fine |
| All the chicks went crazy |
| Up in cell block number nine |
