Let me out
Sorry son
Commit a crime - pay the price
Death row - whats that - no stay?
Oh! ok Ill tell him
Dead man walking
Weve all been detained
For the crimes weve committed
They stayed execution
But well never get acquitted
Waiting for the day when they strap us in
And when they pull the lever
Hear the goddamn screams
Shake with fear
Electric chair
Were all inside
Homocide related
Theyll show no mercy
And we dont anticipate it
We move a little closer
Every day to meet our maker
They cover up our face
And then they close the circuit breaker
Oh! no!
Shake with fear
Your time draws near
Oh! no! - I wont go
Youll never get me down to
Death row
Oh come on man
Give me a break
I made one mistake, thats all it takes
I aint that bad
I aint done nothing wrong
Shake with fear
The end is near
Oh! no! - I wont go
Youll never get me down to
Death row
Oh! no! - theyre taking me slow
One way ticket to
Death row
So whats the matter son
Too young to die
Take it like a man
Dont cry
Ha! ha! ha!
Oh! no! - I wont go
Youll never get me down to
Death row
Say a prayer, best beware
Its not very nice in the electric chair
Oh! no! - I wont go
Youll never get me down to
Death row
Oh! no! - theyre taking me slow
One way ticket to
Death row
