There was a friend of mine on murder

There was a friend of mine on murder,
And the judges gavel fell
Jury found him guilty,
Gave 'em sixteen years in hell
He said: I ain't spendin' my life here,
I ain't livin' alone
Ain't breakin' the rocks on the chain gang,
I'm breakin' out and headin' home

I'm gonna make a jailbreak,
And I'm lookin' towards the sky!
I'm gonna make a jailbreak,
Ah, how I wish that I could fly!

All in the name of Liberty!
All in the name of Liberty!
Got to be free!

Jailbreak!
let me outta here!
Jailbreak!
Sixteen years, oh!
Jailbreak!
had more than i can take!
Jailbreak!

Yeah...

He said he'd seen his lady bein' fooled with,
By another man
She was down and he was up,
Had a gun in his hand
Uh, bullets started flyin' every where,
And people started to scream!
Big man lyin' 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 - firin'!
But he made it out...
With a bullet in his back!

Jailbreak!
