They say that in the Tower the coffee's mighty fine

It looks like muddy water and tastes like turpentine


Chorus: Oh Lord, I wanna go

But they won't let me go

Oh Lord, I wanna go hoo-hoo-hoooome EH!


They say that in the Tower the chow is mighty fine

A chicken jumped off the table and started marking time


Chorus: Oh Lord, I wanna go

But they won't let me go

Oh Lord, I wanna go hoo-hoo-hoooome EH!


They say that in the Tower the biscuits are mighty fine

One rolled off the table and killed a friend of mine


Chorus: Oh Lord, I wanna go

But they won't let me go

Oh Lord, I wanna go hoo-hoo-hoooome EH!


They say that in the Tower the training's might fine

Last night there were ten of us, now there's only nine


Chorus: Oh Lord, I wanna go

But they won't let me go

Oh Lord, I wanna go hoo-hoo-hoooome EH!


They say that in the Tower the pay is mighty fine

They give you a hundred dollars and take back ninety-nine


Chorus: Oh Lord, I wanna go

But they won't let me go

Oh Lord, I wanna go hoo-hoo-hoooome EH

They say that in the Tower the women's mighty fine

They're all really scary and use balefire all the time


Chorus: Oh Lord, I wanna go

But they won't let me go

Oh Lord, I wanna go hoo-hoo-hoooome EH
