Whoreson Prison Blues lyrics
by Joseph Trapanese
[Verse 1]
It's been a long time traveling
On roads that lead to nowhere
With hopes and dreams that always rot
Sometimes it takes a prison cell
The tricks and tales that traitors tell
To help you see that freedom is all you've got
If I had to do it over
I'd do it all again
The wind don't cower to powerful men
[Chorus]
So lock me up
And sock me up
And throw away the key
Go f*ck yourself, you whoreson
'Cause you're through f*ckin' with me
[Pre-Chorus]
You learn the more you live, they say
Don't settle for your lot
Opinions are like arseholes
Which everybody's got
[Chorus]
So lock me up
And sock me up
And throw away the key
Go f*ck yourself, you whoreson
'Cause you're through f*ckin' with me
Oh, lock me up
And sock me up
And throw away the key
Go f*ck yourself, you whoreson
'Cause you're through f*ckin' with me
