Jailbreak Lyrics by SubRosa

The Worm Has Turned

2006

It's been 18 years in this prison cell
Separated from my best friend
He lives out in the men's wing
I send him pictures in my head

How long must I suffer, Lord?
How much can I take?
How long must I languish, Lord
Before they come to take me away
Take me away?

Gonna get free
Gonna get free tonight

I send the blueprints from my thoughts
And we plan our escape
We ain't goin' nowhere without our friends
So we tell them all the date

Bessy's got the sledgehammer
And Marvin's got the screw
Sally's got the heart of the guard
She knows just what to do

Gonna get free
Gonna get free tonight

We make our way in the moonlight
It helps us on our way
By the time they find our empty beds
We're 18 miles away
18 miles away

Hold me tight
Hold me tight tonight
