Might As Well Be a Slave |
| Lying here watching the time pass |
| I could think of a million things I’d rather do |
| Travel at my own pace |
| Put myself asleep if I wanted to |
| Might as well be behind bars |
| Than be lashed to a wave that I can’t haul |
| Might as well be a slave |
| Lying low in the shade of a prison wall |
| Lying here watching the time pass |
| I could cry for the helping hands that I refused |
| We were good friends but I did refuse |
| Might as well be behind bars |
| Getting used to the sound of my keeper’s call |
| I might as well be a slave |
| Drinking sun through a chink in a prison wall |
| Down here down where the end is |
| You absolve me from every crime I ever planned |
| I was so surprised I did not think that you would understand |
| Might as well be behind bars |
| Growing old in a carpeted hall |
| O might as well be a slave |
| Ever safe out of the rain in prison walls |
| Might as well be behind bars |
| Getting used to the sound of my keeper’s call |
| I might as well be a slave |
| Always safe out of the rain in prison walls |
