doing time

Singer:gallagher, rory

i'm breaking rocks and i'm doing time

she's on the streets with a friend of mine

i drove the car i took the fall

i walk the cell at night i cry 'til dawn

at night i cry 'til dawn

the days are long but time will pass

i'm breaking out i soon will get my change

i'm in my cell it's ten by nine

she's living it up on champagne and wine

i took the rap i have to smile

time drags by but i'll get loose after a while

get loose after a while

deep in the night just like a child

i walk the cell my mind is running wild

i'm going numb from too much waiting

until my dying day

i'll suffocate from too much hating

there'll be hell to pay

i'm gonna rot from too much waiting

'til my dying day

my soul is bruised my heart is shaking

there'll be hell to pay

i'm digging ditches i'm breaking stones

sewing mailbags it ain't no fun

bread and water my life is complete

hold my breath 'til i'm back out on the streets

back out on the streets

revenge is sweet or so they say

just watch your steps i'm breaking out today

revenge is sweet or so they say

just watch your steps i'm breaking out today
