Rickers Island
DRIVING FAST IN A STOLEN CAR
THROUGH A NORTH DAKOTA TOWN,
I NEVER DREAMED I WOULD GET THIS FAR
TO THE BORDER OF CANADA,
RIKERS ISLAND, RIKERS ISLAND,
THEY DON T KNOW THAT I’M INNOCENT
AND I’M NOT INTERESTED IN DYING,
DOWN ON THE FLOOR WITH THE MAN IN BLUE
LIKE AS IF GOD WAS IN HIS CORNER,
RIKERS ISLAND, RIKERS ISLAND,
I’M FREE, I’M FREE, I’M FREE, I’M FREE,
TWO MORE DAYS AND I CROSS THE LINE
YES I’M BUSTING OUT OF HERE,
TWO MORE DAYS AND THE WORLD IS MINE,
NONE OF THEIR LOCKS CAN CONFINE ME,
RIKERS ISLAND RIKERS ISLAND
I’M FREE, I’M FREE I’M FREE I’M FREE,
A PACK OF SMOKES AND THE RADIO ON
I RECALL THAT DAY IN COURT,
IF I FLOOR THE GAS I CAN FORGET THE PAST,
GIVE ME ONE CHANCE LORD,
RIKERS ISLAND, RIKERS ISLAND
I’M FREE, I’M FREE, I’M FREE, I’M FREE,
I’M FREE, I’M FREE, I’M FREE, I’M FREE,
