My ties are cut, my heart is broke
My nerves are shot, and my last joint is smoked
Singing ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, hey
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, hey
This world's a prison, it's all gone to hell
And I met the warden, but I couldn't make the bail
Singing ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, hey
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, hey
I'll keep running, ain't that the truth
I don't need the devil when I'm so close to you
Singing ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, hey
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, hey
I'm underpaid, and I'm overworked
Damn 9 to 5, come on take me to church
Singing ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, hey
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, hey
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, hey
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, hey
This world's a prison, it's all gone to hell
And I met the warden, but I couldn't make the bail
Singing I'll keep running, ain't that the truth
I don't need the devil when I'm so close to you
I'll keep running, ain't that the truth
I don't need the devil when I'm so close to you
My ties are cut, my heart is broke
My nerves are shot, and my last joint is smoked
