Prison Blues Songtext
von Jimmy Page

{intro: ′59 Les Paul and amp start oozing}

I've been a b-bad boy baby
I′ve been a bad boy all night long - oh yes I have,
Yes, I've been a bad boy honey,
I've been a bad boy all night long,
That woman, she don′t even let me,
She did not even telephone.

I′m gonna leave my little honey,
Like a rabbit leaves the hole,
A-ow-ah leave my little honey baby,
Just like that little bunny rabbit leaves the hole,
I got a weasel in my pocket,
I'm gonna stick that weasel down my mamma,
I′m gonna stick it down that little hole.

{solo}


I'm never gonna get out of this prison babay,
The only way I get out is climb over the wall,
Oh baby, the only way out is that I get a ladder
and climb over the wall
Well I can′t climb the ladder baby,
'Cause I′m afraid that I, that I might fall.
Come on yeah!

I'm staying in this Folsom prison honey,
Yeah, I'm gonna stay in this prison till the day that I day,
Oh, I′ll stay in Folsom prison baby,
Oh, till the day, until the day that I die,
Hear more, I′m gonna kill nobody,
Oh my baby you know, you know that I'm staying alive

{outro}

′Cause I know baby, that's gonna be a great big lie,
(You know I′m livin' in this F-Fol′ prison)
