11.Riot In Cell Block Number Nine
Lyricist：Jerry Leiber, Mike Stoller
It was December the sixth, 1983
I was doin' time for armed robbery
At four in the morning, I was sitting in my cell
I heard a whistle blow and I heard somebody yell
There's a riot going on
There's a riot going on
There's a riot going on
Up in cell block number nine
Our warden said, 'Come out with your hands up in the air
If you don't stop this riot, you're all gonna get the chair'
And Scarface Jones said, 'It's too late to quit
Pass the dynamite, don't you give me any shit'
There's a riot going on
There's a riot going on
There's a riot going on
Up in cell block number nine
On forty-seventh hour, the nerve gas got our men
We're all back in our cells but every now and then
There's a riot going on
There's a riot going on
There's a riot going on
Up in cell block number nine
Up in cell block number nine
Up in cell block number nine
