mercy on the boy

Lyrics

if i ever get out of here, well i might just set alight to this town, swinging out that ball and chain, gonna, bring these four walls tumbling down, so you take a fool like me, yeah and throw away the key, spend my wasted days doing time, breaking these rocks in my head, but you know you're better off dead, when the judges bring the hammer down a little, mercy on the boy, you know it ain't easy, if i ever get out of here, gonna be a price to pay for this crime, well there ain't no place to hide, and there ain't no god on your side 'til the kingdom comes, gonna bend these cold steel bars, gonna scream it till somebody hears, ain't a cage that can keep me inside, breaking these rocks in my head, but you know you're better off dead, when the judges bring the hammer down, just a little, mercy on the boy, you know it ain't easy, mercy on the boy
