Lyrics:

I'm just a prisoner of your love
You got me lip-locked by fighting the gum
If I escaped too I would be lost
So don't bail me out babe
I'll pay the cost

See it ain't that funny
Spent my money
Sweet as a felon
Ain't you hunny
I can here the gripes
But I'm werin stripes
Look up at the stars
But I gota think twice

All of the fighting
Keeps it exciting

I'm doing time
But I don't mind
I'll be just fine
Sometimes I just hate to love you
I'm doing time
But I don't mind
I'll be just fine
Sometimes I just hate to love you

I'm doing time
It's a real fight
But it's all right
Sometimes I just hate to love you

You got me up a treating me cold
I though the key out a long time ago
If you release me I wouldn't leave
So don't feed me poison I gota eat

Me and my cell mate
Are planing our escape
Tell me when your ready
And we can storm the front gate
Who are the jail people
Real deep sleeper
No big deal just misdemeanor

All of the fighting
Keeps it exciting

I'm doing time
But I don't mind
I'll be just fine
Sometimes I just hate to love you
I'm doing time
But I don't mind
I'll be just fine
Sometimes I just hate to love you

I'm doin' time
It's a real fight
But it's all right
Sometimes I just hate to love you

See I don't need the bars to lock me in
You can let your guard down till the end
Forever doesn't have to know for night
And that's why

I'm doing time
But I don't mind
I'll be just fine
I'm doing time
But I don't mind
I'll be just fine
Sometimes I just hate to love you
I'm doing time
But I don't mind
I'll be just fine
Sometimes I just hate to love you
I'm doing time
But I don't mind
I'll be just fine
Sometimes I just hate to love you

I'm doing time
It's a real fight
But it's all right
Sometimes I just hate to love you
