Oh lord life ain't easy
Chained up in the cell
Lord lord life ain't easy
Save me from this hell

Four grey walls surround me
I got these lock down blues
Four year stretch until I'm free
No life left to choose

Won't somebody help me
Break out of these chains
Won't somebody rescue me
Before I blow my brains

Get outta jail, get outta jail
Give me one more gig to satisfy
One more gig before I die
Get outta jail, I don't need no bail
Give me one more gig to satisfy
One more gig before I die

Oh lord life ain't easy
Save me from this hell

Prison life ain't easy
Trying to keep the peace
Low down, broke and sleazy
Got many palms to grease

Won't somebody help me
Break out of this cell
Won't somebody rescue me
Save me from this hell

Get outta jail, get outta jail
Give me one more gig to satisfy
One more gig before I die
Get outta jail, I don't need no bail
Give me one more gig to satisfy
One more gig before I die

Oh lord life ain't easy
Chained up in the cell
Lord lord life ain't easy
Save me from this hell

Won't somebody help me
Break out of these chains
Won't somebody rescue me
Before I blow my brains

Get outta jail, get outta jail
Give me one more gig to satisfy
One more gig before I die
Get outta jail, I don't need no bail
Give me one more gig to satisfy
One more gig before I die
One more gig to satisfy
One more gig before I die
