paroles de chanson Riot in Cell Block Number Nine (2012 Remastered Version) - Dr. Feelgood

On July 2nd 1953
I was serving time for armed robbery
4 oclock in the morning I was sleeping in my cell
I heard a whistle blow I heard somebody yell.
There's a riot going on
There's a riot going on
There's a riot going on
Up in cell block number 9.
The trouble started in cell block number 4
And spread like fire across the prison floor
I said come on boys get ready to run
Here comes the warden with a Tommy gun
There's a riot going on x3
Up in cell block number 9.
The warden said come out with your hands up in the air,
If you don't stop the riot you're all gonna get the chair.
Scarface jones said it's too late to quit
And pass the dynamite boys cos the fuse is lit.
There's a riot going on x3
Up in cell block number 9.
On the 92nd hour the teargas got our man
We're back in our cells but every now and then
There's a riot going on x3
Up in cell block number 9.
