If This Is Prison
Words & Music by: Teddy Chazz
If this is prison, throw away the key...
if it means forever you'll be holding me.
I'll tell the judge, please give me life,
I won't care...I'll pay any price.
He said "You could...be doin' time."
I said "I've been and I don't mind..."
If this is prison...throw away the key.
If it means forever you'll be holdin' me.
Well I won't fight, I'll go quietly
for I won't mind my destiny.
I get three meals...three meals a day.
The food ain't great, but that's ok.
She makes it up...in other ways.
If this is prison, throw away the key.
If it means forever, you'll be holdin' me.
Judge tell the jury, don't stay out late.
My baby likes me, home by eight.
Sounds like you...are doin' time.
I said 'I am...but I don't mind'...
If this is prison, throw away the key...
if it means forever you'll be holding me.
The judge he said, "You're free to go.
They'll be a fine...and you'll pay some dough."
I said "I've paid...more than you'll know."
If this is prison, throw away the key...
if it means forever you'll be holding me.
...you'll be holdin' me.
