San Quentin, you've been Flivin' hell to Bme
You've blistered me since Ebnineteen sixty Bthree
I've Ebseen 'em come and go and I've seen them Bdie
And long ago I Fstopped askin' Bwhy
San Quentin, I hate Fevery inch of Byou
You've cut me and you Ebscarred me through and Bthrough
And EbI'll walk out a wiser weaker Bman
Mister Congressman Fyou can't understBand
B F B B B F B B Eb Eb B B B F B B
San Quentin, what good Fdo you think you Bdo?
Do you think I'll be Ebdifferent when you're Bthrough?
You Ebbend my heart and mind and you warp my Bsoul,
And your stone walls turn my Fblood a little Bcold
San Quentin, may you Ebrot and burn in Bhell
May your walls fall and may I live to Ftell
May Ball the world forget you ever Ebstood
And may Ball the world regrFet you did no Bgood
San Quentin, I hate Fevery inch of ByouFB
