Doing Time

I'm breaking rocks and I'm doing time She's on the street with a friend of mine I drove the car, I took the fall I walk the cell, at night I cry till dawn At night I cry till dawn The days are long but time will pass I'm breaking out, I soon will get my chance I'm in a cell, it's ten by nine She's livin' 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 Till my dying day My soul is bruised, my heart is shaking There'll be hell to pay, yeah 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, till I'm back out on the street Back out on the street, yeah Revenge is sweet or so they say Just watch your step, I'm breaking out today Revenge is sweet or so they say Just watch your step, I'm breaking out today Revenge is sweet or so they say Just watch your step, I'm breaking out today --- Doing Time - Rory Gallagher
