Jailhouse fire

Laura Veirs

Did you see that lady there
They stripped her to her underwear
She took it one step further and stripped to bare

Through the rising flames
And smoke she laughed as all the police choked
And then she danced in the government pyre

The jailhouse is on fire
The jailhouse is on fire

She grabbed a guard and stole his keys unlocked the cells
And set us free and we ran and caught our pants
On the old barbed wire

We hit the dirt, we hit the road we jumped the fence
We kissed a toad and we hollared at the ladies
In the churchyard choir

The jailhouse is on fire
The jailhouse is on fire

I hopped a train and headed west free woman
Now just like the rest all the hobos on the line called me a liar

The train it choked and spewed and spat and coal smoke billowed thick
And black and she was everywhere and rising higher

She set the jailhouse on fire
She set the jailhouse on fire
She set the jailhouse on fire
