Angola (Wrong Side Of The Law)

Lying in bed, waiting for the drip to feed


Over my head, a movie on the

TV
Cops, killers ruling with the gun


Then a nurse comes in, time for the medication



Blame it on shock, blame it on the morphine


But my finger prints put me on the crime scene


Cruel twist of fate, it's like I'm in a really bad dream


I'm a victim of mistaken identity


And the ordinary people


All the passers-by


Shake their heads and sigh, 


"But for the grace of God go I"



They are just on the wrong side of the law


Livin' on the wrong side of the law


Victims each and every one


Now that bad guy's out there on the run


Heading for the setting sun



There's a jailhouse in Louisiana state


And in times like this I really do appreciate


The desperate cries of all of the inmates


'Cause once you're inside, they're gonna make you sit and wait


As time goes by, hear the criminals sing a sad, sad song

We were just on the wrong side of the law


Livin' on the wrong side of the law


Victims each and every one


Now the outlaw's living on the run


Heading for the setting sun



And ordinary people


All the passers-by


Are helpless on the wrong side of the law


Staring at the wrong side of the law


Every time we see the system fail


And the bad guys end up getting bail


While the good guys go to jail



Yeah, I might as well rot in Angola


For all the good the DA's done for me


I was the one who ended up taking the bullet


I'm lying here, but he's still running free


On the wrong side of the law
