City jail city jail like an old scared dog |
|
I tuck my tail |
|
Bow my head and not a careless word is said |
|
Gotta sleep on the floor once more at city jail |
|
Well I was hangin' round the bus station |
|
Mindin' my own business like |
|
I always do |
|
When I saw this waitress in this bus station cafe |
|
And I thought |
|
I check out the action like |
|
I always do |
|
I'd give her the bad eye and made a few choices personal comments |
|
About what |
|
I thought mine and her possibilities could be for a team |
|
When she called the badge on me |
|
The badge grabbed me by the arm and he said |
|
What are you doin' hangin' around here for |
|
And I said for whatever's goin' around |
|

|

|

|
And I said what's that lady's doin' with purple hair |
|
Well the badge said you're smart alec and |
|
I said no |
|

|
And he said you're actin' like a smart alec |
|
And I said no that's how |
|
I act when |
|
I get hungry |
|
City jail city jail... |
|
Well he put me outside in a dark corner |
|
And before you could say hypocrite he hit me on the head |
|
And I said oooh don't hit me on the head |
|
I can't protect myself with the handcuffs on |
|
Please don't hit me on the head then he hit me again he hit me again he hit me again |
|
And I said oh oh oh oh oh please don't stand on my feet when you hit me |

|
And that waitress walked out with a sailor |
