| Parody Song Title: | "Held in Cell Block E" |
| Parody Written by: | Merry & Pippin |
Well I used to be on the railroad crew
Working for the company
Came in drunk one day and lost my job
Poor poor pitiful me
Poor poor pitiful me
Held in Cell Block E
Big strong boys won't let me be
Lord have mercy on me
Woe woe is me
Well I robbed a bank out in Hollywood
Only got myself to blame
Now I'm stuck in here; locked up for good
Got me a new name
Yes I'm stuck here with boys from the 'hood
I think they've confused my gender
They want to..... oh my good gawd!
Now I've got one quite sore ender
Poor poor pitiful me
Poor poor pitiful me
Crack-pipe boys won't let me be
Lord have mercy on me
Woe woe is me
Well I met Bubba in the shower room - was
Out to do me harm-a
He picked me up and he threw me down
I said, "Please don't hurt me Mama"
Poor poor pitiful me
Poor poor pitiful me
Bubba's boys won't let me be
Lord have mercy on me
Woe woe is me
Held in Cell Block E
Gov'ner's eyein' up me
I hate Cell Block E
They want to bugger me
Oh please put me
Down in solitary
Working for the company
Came in drunk one day and lost my job
Poor poor pitiful me
Poor poor pitiful me
Held in Cell Block E
Big strong boys won't let me be
Lord have mercy on me
Woe woe is me
Well I robbed a bank out in Hollywood
Only got myself to blame
Now I'm stuck in here; locked up for good
Got me a new name
Yes I'm stuck here with boys from the 'hood
I think they've confused my gender
They want to..... oh my good gawd!
Now I've got one quite sore ender
Poor poor pitiful me
Poor poor pitiful me
Crack-pipe boys won't let me be
Lord have mercy on me
Woe woe is me
Well I met Bubba in the shower room - was
Out to do me harm-a
He picked me up and he threw me down
I said, "Please don't hurt me Mama"
Poor poor pitiful me
Poor poor pitiful me
Bubba's boys won't let me be
Lord have mercy on me
Woe woe is me
Held in Cell Block E
Gov'ner's eyein' up me
I hate Cell Block E
They want to bugger me
Oh please put me
Down in solitary
