lyrics
Sitting in this cell we're s'posed to hang in the morn
They got a rope hung for each of our necks right out there
They say we'll swing 'til we're dead 'n' just as sure as we're born
The town will watch us wriggle and they'll cheer in the square
Though we're surrounded by the darkness I can see the light
Just through these bars up above shine blinding rays of hope
The morning sun should be a curse but lord it shines so bright
We smile because we won't be at the end of no rope
Don't get us wrong just now we're not afraid to die
Trapped by the bars of steel 'n' these walls of brown
This stick of dynamite is tellin' us it just ain't our time
Just like the Walls of Jericho they'll come a'crumblin' down
No prison bars can hold us men can try 'n' shoot us down
We'll leave them lyin' in their graves and make our way right outta town
Riding for the sunrise there's one thing that you can trust
If you're gonna try 'n' stop us you'll be face down in the dust
