letra de sentenced to the chair - lightnin' rod

when i finally came to
i was all black and blue
and one of my legs was in a sling
i was handcuffed at the wrist
and on the critical list
and in the prison ward hospital wing
seems they had blown a hole in my chest
that nearly laid me to rest
and put knots all upside my head
i was gagging and choking
and my right leg was broken
and it was just a miracle that i wasn’t dead
i was sentenced to the chair
and shipped to sing-sing from there
where i spent the next twelve years on death row
but i kept on copping a stay
until the death penalty was done away
and after retrial they finally let me go
it had cost me twelve years of my time
to realize what a nickel and dime
hustler i had really been
while the real hustlers were ripping off bands
from the unsuspecting mans
who are programmed to think they could win
but fortunately i had escaped
from the deathly fate
of being fried alive in the chair
cause in my solitude i found out what’s really going down
you see
i had learned the whole truth while i was there

[outro: feelin’ alright]
i’m feeling alright
and i’m feeling too good ’bout that
oooohhh yaahh
i’m feeling alright
yes i am, yes i am, oh yes i am
and i’m feeling too good ’bout that
