Seeing it on MTV, All cameras痴 focused on me,
Helicopters up above, Oh what a travesty,
There痴 a crazy world at war, Right outside of my front door,
They池e wasting time on me; I知 just a jailhouse baby.

Oh, I feel so sleepy, Oh, Jailhouse baby,
Oh, No winner of the world, I知 a little, I知 a little jail bird,
Oh, I feel so sleepy, Oh, Jailhouse baby,
Oh, No winner of the world, I知 a little, I知 a little jail bird.

Cold nights and freezing water, Fluorescents always on,
Stuck here behind this glass, My parents see their daughter,
Judge her nose and liberty; You池e a desperate wanabe,
Sadness you壇 rather leave, Real criminals on the streets.

Oh, I feel so sleepy, Oh, Jailhouse baby,
Oh, No winner of the world, I知 a little, I知 a little jail bird,
Oh, I feel so sleepy, Oh, Jailhouse baby,
Oh, No winner of the world, I知 a little, I知 a little jail bird.

Hand cuffs and Coco cream, Notes that dried under my door,
Look at me caught in this cage, Just like an animal,
Like a public enemy, make a mockery out of me,
How dangerous can I be?, I知 just a jailhouse baby.

Oh, I feel so sleepy, Oh, Jailhouse baby,
Oh, No winner of the world, I知 a little, I知 a little jail bird,
Oh, I feel so sleepy, Oh, Jailhouse baby,
Oh, No winner of the world, I知 a little, I知 a little jail bird.

All those lonely nights of terror, I thank you for your letters,
Words from around the world, for the lonely little jail bird.
Still haunted by nightmares, Why痴 the system so unfair,
But I知 stronger than before, No I知 no longer scared.

Oh, I feel so sleepy, Oh, Jailhouse baby,
Oh, No winner of the world, I知 a little, I知 a little jail bird,
Oh, I feel so sleepy, Oh, Jailhouse baby,
Oh, No winner of the world, I知 a little, I知 a little jail bird.
