Prisoner
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
He's a prisoner
A prisoner
A prisoner of your love
My jail don't have no bars
My cell doesn't have no key
Here I am all alone
Walkin' down the street
Walkin', talkin', tellin' lies
Baby, what I do
Any fool can see
I'm in love with you
I'm a prisoner
I'm a prisoner, baby
A prisoner of your love
I'm a prisoner, baby
I'm a prisoner, baby
A prisoner of your love
Landed on the Bowery
Panhandled for a dime
Walkin' down the street
I almost lost my mind
You've heard my song before
Sad but true
Anybody man can see
I'm in love with you
I'm a prisoner
I'm a prisoner, baby
A prisoner of your love
I'm a prisoner, oh baby
I'm a prisoner, baby
A prisoner of your love
I don't care about the SST
I said nothin' in this makes too much sense to me
I don't care about politics too
Let the cheap politics do what they want to do
I don't have chains but I'm chained
I don't have shackles but I'm shackled like a slave
There ain't no any stripes in my shirts, but, baby, I hurt
