A
They locked me up, put me away

          D
Said, you won't get out
In forever and a day
A
I didn't know what was going on

D
All I was doing was looking for fun

A
Love don't come easy, that's what I'm told

           D
But you've gotta get it in before you get old

A
They thought they had me
Had me for keeps
    D
But they don't know this boy never sleeps

I like a laugh, I like a joke

It's not my fault if my sense of humour's broke

I tried to tell them I was sick

D
They seemed to think it was some kind of a trick

A
Well alright, I would have done good

D
If they had listened to me like they should

A
I wouldn't have this loaded gun

D
Looking for a citizen to waste just for fun

You'd better watch out, you never will know

Who's gonna be the next to go

A
Nice, my friend, but nobody knows

Fixes the odds, evens the scores

This time around, I won't go wrong

The body hits the ground and I'll be long gone

They won't suspect me, no not a soul

Cause I'm a good boy, I'm on parole
