Doing Time Lyrics - Defender - Rory Gallagher

I'm breaking rocks and I'm doing time 

She's on the street with a friend of mine 

I drove the car, I took the fall 

I walk the cell, at night I cry till dawn 

At night I cry till dawn 

The days are long but time will pass 

I'm breaking out, I soon will get my chance 

I'm in a cell, it's ten by nine 

She's livin' it up on champagne and wine 

I took the rap, I have to smile 

Time drags by but I'll get loose after a while 

Get loose after a while 

Deep in the night, just like a child 

I walk the cell, my mind is running wild 

I'm going numb from too much waiting 

Until my dying day 

I'll suffocate from too much hating 

There'll be hell to pay 

I'm gonna rot from too much waiting 

Till my dying day 

My soul is bruised, my heart is shaking 

There'll be hell to pay, yeah 

I'm digging ditches, I'm breaking stones 

Sewing mailbags, it ain't no fun 

Bread and water, my life is complete 

Hold my breath, till I'm back out on the street 

Back out on the street, yeah 

Revenge is sweet or so they say 

Just watch your step, I'm breaking out today 

Revenge is sweet or so they say 

Just watch your step, I'm breaking out today 

Revenge is sweet or so they say 

Just watch your step, I'm breaking out today
