Jailhouse Rocking |
| Jailhouse rocking… jailhouse rocking |
| Prisoner chanting cause thay want to come out |
| It’s been a long time |
| My brothers and my sisters |
| I’ve been taken away for such a long time |
| Locked behind the bars in Spanish town |
| Locked behind the bars in Richman farm |
| Locked behind the bars in Fort Augustus |
| Said I know what you’re going through |
| Said I know what you’re feeling too |
| Though I know a lot of you are innocent |
| Serving the time of a convicted prisoner |
| Jailhouse rocking… jailhouse |
| Prisoners chanting for they want to come out |
| Jailhouse rocking. |
| jailhouse |
| Look and take a stock |
| So when the youths come check you for work to do |
| The reply is tellin' them «I can’t help you» |
| Look upon their feet, not even a shoe to wear |
| Look upon their rainment, all you see is tear |
| How do you think they gonna survive |
| Guess you should have known by now |
| They’ll be robbin, stabbin, looting in the street |
| And I know each and veryone needs to eat |
| They’ll be robbin, stabbin, shootin all over |
| And I tell you that it happens on the corner |
| Jailhouse rocking… jailhouse rocking |
| Look and take a stock |
| So many times jailers guys come down on you all |
| With their baton stick and a whole lot of licks |
| Jailhouse rock… jailhouse rock… jailhouse rock |
| Prisoners chanting for they want to come out |
| Jailhouse rocking… jailhouse rocking |
| Prisoner chanting cause thay want to come out |
| It’s been a long time |
| My brothers and my sisters |
| I’ve been taken away for such a long time |
| Locked behind the bars in Spanish town |
| Locked behind the bars in Richman farm |
| Locked behind the bars in Fort Augustus |
| Said I know what you’re going through |
| Said I know what you’re feeling too |
| Though I know a lot of you are innocent |
| Serving the time of a convicted prisoner |
| Jailhouse rocking… jailhouse |
| Prisoners chanting for they want to come out |
| Jailhouse rocking. |
