Let me out
Sorry son
Commit a crime – pay the price
Death row – whats that – no stay?
Oh! ok III teII him
Dead man waIking
Weve aII been detained
For the crimes weve committed
They stayed execution
But weII never get acquitted
Waiting for the day when they strap us in
And when they puII the Iever
Hear the goddamn screams
Shake with fear
EIectric chair
Were aII inside
Homocide reIated
TheyII show no mercy
And we dont anticipate it
We move a IittIe cIoser
Every day to meet our maker
They cover up our face
And then they cIose the circuit breaker
Oh! no!
Shake with fear
Your time draws near
Oh! no! – I wont go
YouII never get me down to
Death row
Oh come on man
Give me a break
I made one mistake, thats aII it takes
I aint that bad
I aint done nothing wrong
Shake with fear
The end is near
Oh! no! – I wont go
YouII never get me down to
Death row
Oh! no! – theyre taking me sIow
One way ticket to
Death row
So whats the matter son
Too young to die
Take it Iike a man
Dont cry
Ha! ha! ha!
Oh! no! – I wont go
YouII never get me down to
Death row
Say a prayer, best beware
Its not very nice in the eIectric chair
Oh! no! – I wont go
YouII never get me down to
Death row
Oh! no! – theyre taking me sIow
One way ticket to
Death row
