| There was a friend of mine on murder |
| And the judge's gavel fell, |
| Jury found him guilty, |
| Gave him sixteen years in hell. |
| He said "I ain't spending my life here, |
| I ain't living alone, |
| Ain't breaking no rocks on the chain gang, |
| I'm breakin' out and headin' home. |
|
| Gonna make a Jailbreak |
| And I'm lookin' towards the sky, |
| I'm gonna make a Jailbreak |
| Oh, how I wish that I could fly |
|
| All in the name of Liberty |
| All in the name of Liberty |
| Just set me free |
|
| Jailbreak, let me out of here |
| Jailbreak, sixteen years, |
| Jailbreak, had more than I can take |
| Jailbreak, yeah." |
|
| He said he'd seen his lady being fooled with |
| by another man. |
| She was down and he was up |
| He had a gun in his hand. |
| Bullets started flying everywhere |
| And people started to scream |
| Big man lying on the ground |
| With a hole in his body |
| Where his life had been |
| But it was |
|
| All in the name of Liberty |
| All in the name of Liberty |
| I got to be free. |
|
| Jailbreak, Jailbreak |
| I got to break out |
| Out of here. |
|
| Heartbeats they were racin', |
| Freedom he was chasin' |
| Spotlights, sirens, rifles firing, |
| But he made it out |
| With a bullet in his back. |
