lyrics

RETURN TO ALCATRAZ

ive been livin on the outside for too long
every time i break the law i feel like ive done somethin wrong
im a lonesome parolee
sick and tired of being free

alcatraz . alcatraz
the straight life's got no razzmatazz
wish i could return to alcatraz

i got a job screwin around with nuts and bolts'
passing the time of day with ordinary dolts
what happened to my friends
days of excitement with no end
what we need out here is some kind of revolt

alcatraz . alcatraz
each day i lose a little more pizzaz
i wish i could return to alcatraz

the only way back home
is on the alcatraz ferry route
and you can only stay there overnight
if you join the boy scouts

never order the special in a joint called Yesterdays"
i fumble l with the crap they should have thrown away
they ask how long im stayin
then i duck out without payin
and i lift a couple wallets on the way

alcatra alcatraz
wish i could return to alcatraz
