im gonna love you (when i get outa jail)

<sub>mama says i shoulda learned by now
papa says he aint gonna pay my bail
i know im gonna do it, i just dont know how
but im gonna love you when i get outa jail
(im gonna love you when i get outa jail)

the cops, always after me
they put a hit on my head before i was born
the law aint what it should be
thats why im running with my sleeves torn
(need i say more?)

mama says i shoulda learned by now
papa says he aint gonna pay my bail
i know im gonna do it, i just dont know how
but im gonna love you when i get outa jail
(im gonna love you when i get outa jail)

we fell in love, in ecstasy
we said wed be together forevermore
until the constabulary
came a bumping and a knocking down my door

mama says i shoulda learned by now
papa says he aint gonna pay my bail
i know im gonna do it, i just dont know how
but im gonna love you when i get outa jail
(im gonna love you when i get outa jail)

locked up, beaten down no more
ex con with a clean slate on his heart
gonna make a visit more than conjugal
gonna stay with ya this time well never part

mama says i always made her proud
papa says i sound just like Dick Dale
i know what im gonna do, now that im out
im gonna love you cuz im outa jail
(im gonna love you cuz im outa jail)
im gonna love you cuz im outa jail
(im gonna love you cuz im outa jail)</sub>
