Riot in Cell Block Number Nine (Live) - Dr Feelgood

作曲：Jerry Leiber/Mike Stoller

On July 2nd 1953

I was serving time for armed robbery

4'o clock in the morning I was sleeping in my cell

I heard a whistle blow I heard somebody yell

There's a riot going on

There's a riot going on

There's a riot going on

Up in cell block number 9

The trouble started in cell block number 4

And spread like fire across the prison floor

I said come on boys get ready to run

Here comes the warden with a Tommy gun

There's a riot going on

There's a riot going on

There's a riot going on

Up in cell block number 9

The warden said come out with your hands up in the air

If you don't stop the riot you're all gonna get the chair

Scarface Jones said it's too late to quit

Pass the dynamite fuse is lit

There's a riot going on

There's a riot going on

There's a riot going on

Up in cell block number 9

On the 92nd hour the teargas got our man

We're back in our cells but every now and then

There's a riot going on

There's a riot going on

There's a riot going on

Up in cell block

Up in cell block

Up in cell block number 9
