Riot In Cell Block #9
recorded by various people, including Dr. Feelgood and the Blues Brothers
December the 6th, 1953,
I was doin` time for armed robbey,
`Bout four in the morning,
I was sleepin` in my cell,
I heard a whistle blow,
I heard somebody yell...
There`s a riot goin` on
There`s a riot goin` on
There`s a riot goin` on
Up in cell block number nine.
The warden said,
`Come out with your hands up in the air,
If you don`t stop this riot,
you`re all gonna get the chair`.
Scarface Jones said, `It`s too late to quit,
And pass the dynamite, cause the fuse is lit.`
There`s a riot goin` on
There`s a riot goin` on
There`s a riot goin` on
Up in cell block number nine.
The forty-second hour, the tear gas got our men,
We`re all back in our cells now,
But every now and then...
There`s a riot goin` on
There`s a riot goin` on
There`s a riot goin` on
Up in cell block number nine.
