Lyrics:
There's a lot of strange men in cell Block 10 but the strangest of them allWas a friend of mine who spent his timeJust staring at the wall staring at wallIn his hand was a note that his gal had wrote and it proves that crime don't payWas the very same gal he robbed and stoleFor name in her wedding day for name in her wedding dayAs he looked at the wall so strong and tall I could hear him softly curseNobody at all ever climbed that wallBut I'm gonna be the first I'm gonna be the firstThe warden walked by and said son don't try I would hate to see you fallThere ain't no doubt they will carry you outIf you ever touch that wall if you ever touch that wallThe years gone by since he made his try but I can still recallHow hard he tried and the way he diedBut he never made that wall he never made that wallThere's never been a man ever shook this can but I know a man who triedThe newspapers called it a jailbreak planBut I know it was suicide I know it was suicide
