Lyrics

When you're in prison

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.

When you're in prison, don't turn the other way

Keep your back against the wall

When you're in prison, don't turn the other way

Do not bend at all

Oh don't pick up the soap, pick up the soap

It's bad for you

Oh don't pick up the soap, pick up the soap

Someone will be waiting there for you

When you're in prison be sure to stay awake

Always lie upon your back

When you're in prison be sure to stay awake

Keep you from attack

Oh don't be no one's bitch, be no one's bitch

It's bad for you

Oh don't be no one's bitch, be no one's bitch

They won't help you make it through.

When you're in prison, don't turn the other way

Follow what I say to do.

When you're in prison, don't turn the other way

You can make it through

You can make it through

You can make it through
