Jail

Thank you

Well, here I am again

Sittin' down in this old rotten jail

Woah, I said here I am again

Sittin' down in this old rotten jail

Woah, all I got to say

Sittin' here just a-wastin' time

I want somebody to help me

Help me find peace of mind

Oh, somebody help me

Help me find a peace of mind

Sittin' here lookin' out through those bars

I know it ain't nothin' but a waste of time

Hey, Mister Warden

I just want you to let me go free

Please, Mister Warden

I just want you to turn the key

Oh, sittin' in this old jailhouse

I know it ain't nothin', nothin' but the waste of time

You know, I look next door in the cell

I say, "Brotha, how much time do you have?"

In the cell next door to mine

Said, "Brotha, how much time do you have?"

Said, "I got five long years

Sittin' there, baby, it ain't nothin' but wastin' time"

'Cause I got ninety-nine years to go

And I know that one day

I said, I got ninety-nine years to go

And I just wanna tell you this one day

But I asked the warden to let Big Mama go free

Sittin' in jail, sittin' in jail ain't nothin' but a waste of time
