Lyrics for 'Riot In Cell Block No 9' by 'Dr Feelgood'
(leiber/stoller)
On July Second, 1953,
I Was Serving Time For Armed Robbery
'bout Four In The Morning
I Was Sleepin' In My Cell
I Heard A Whistle Blow
I Heard Somebody Yell
There's A Riot Goin' On
There's A Riot Goin' On
There's A Riot Goin' On
Up In Cell Block Number Nine
The Trouble Started In Cell Block No. 4
It Spread Like Fire Across The Prison Floor
I Said "come On Boys, Get Ready To Run -
Here Comes The Warden With A Tommy Gun"
There's A Riot Goin' On
There's A Riot Goin' On
There's A Riot Goin' On
Up In Cell Block Number Nine
The Warden Said
"come Out With Your Hands Up In The Air
If You Don't Stop This Riot (or: You Gonna Start A Riot ???)
You're All Gonna Get The Chair"
Scarface Jones Said, "it's Too Late To Quit
And Pass The Dynamite, 'cause The Fuse Is Lit"
There's A Riot Goin' On
There's A Riot Goin' On
There's A Riot Goin' On
Up In Cell Block Number Nine
The Ninety-second Hour
The Tear Gas Got Our Men
Crawled In Our Cells
But Every Now And Then...
There's A Riot Goin' On
There's A Riot Goin' On
There's A Riot Goin' On
Up In Cell Block Number Nine
