Lyrics

The first time I saw her she was workin' out on Chain Gang Road,
Wearin' them prison blues,
Looked like the buttons were about to explode,
I slammed on my brakes,
Jumped outta my car,
Said I love you baby, whoever you are",
The guard said hey you, be on your way,
You can see her on visitin' day

Baby's in the Big House,
Baby's in the Big House,
She's the hottest thing on cell block number nine,
Her life of crimin' didn't go so well,
Now she's in the big hard rock hotel,
Baby's in the Big House, doin' her time,
But in two to five I'm gonna make her mine

I said hey baby, what's your number?,
She said PV7-08,
I said hey baby I've got to have you,
She said honey you'll have to wait,
So now I go up on the weekend, get me a pass,
Kiss my baby, through bulletproof glass,
We could be just like Bonnie and Clyde,
But I've got to find a way inside

Baby's in the Big House,
Baby's in the Big House,
She's the hottest thing on cell block number nine,
Her life of crimin' didn't go so well,
Now she's in the big hard rock hotel,
Baby's in the Big House, doin' her time,
But in two to five I'm gonna make her mine

I went downtown, found a jewelry store,
Busted in a window sat down on the floor,
Called up the po-leece, said haul me away,
The judge he give me ninety days

Baby's in the Big House,
Baby's in the Big House,
She's the hottest thing on cell block number nine,
Her life of crimin' didn't go so well,
Now she's in the big hard rock hotel,
Baby's in the Big House, doin' her time,
But in two to five I'm gonna make her mine
Yeah, baby's in the Big House, doin' her time,
But in two to five I'm gonna make her mine
