Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak
Somewhere in this town
See, me and the boys, we don't like it
So were getting up and going down

Hiding low, looking right to left
If you see us coming I think it's best
To move away, do you hear what I say	
From under my breath

Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak somewhere in the town
Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak - so don't you be around
Don't you be around

Tonight there's gonna be trouble
Some of us won't survive
See the boys and me mean business
Bustin' out dead or alive

I can hear the hound dogs on my trail
All hell breaks loose, alarm and sirens wail
Like the game if you lose
Go to jail

Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak somewhere in the town
Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak - so don't you be around
Tonight there's gonna trouble I'm gonna find myself in
Tonight there's gonna trouble - so woman stay with a friend
You know it's safer

Breakout

Tonight there's gonna be a breakout
Into the city zones
Don't you dare to try and stop us
No one could for long

Searchlight on my trail
Tonight's the night all systems fail
Hey you, good lookin' female
Come here

Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak somewhere in the town
Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak - so don't you be around
Tonight there's gonna trouble I'm gonna find myself in
Tonight there's gonna trouble - so woman stay with a friend

Guess who just got back today
Them wild-eyed boys that had been away
Haven't changed, had much to say
But man, I still think them cats are crazy

They were asking if you were around
How you was, where you could be found
I told 'em you were living downtown
Driving all the old men crazy

The boys are back in town - the boys are back in town
I said the boys are back in town - the boys are back in town
The boys are back in town - the boys are back in town
The boys are back in town - the boys are back in town

You know that chick that used to dance a lot
Every night she'd be on the floor shaking what she'd got
Man, when I tell you she was cool, she was red hot
I mean she was steamin'

And that time over at Johnny's place
Well, this chick got up and she slapped Johnny's face
Man, we just fell about the place
If that chick don't want to know, forget her

The boys are back in town - the boys are back in town
I said the boys are back in town - the boys are back in town
The boys are back in town - the boys are back in town
The boys are back in town - the boys are back in town

Spread the word around, guess who's back in town
Just spread the word around

Friday night they'll be dressed to kill
Down at Dino's Bar and Grill
The drink will flow and blood will spill
And if the boys want to fight, you'd better let 'em

That jukebox in the corner blasting out my favorite song
The nights are getting warmer, it won't be long
Won't be long till summer comes
Now that the boys are here again

The boys are back in town - the boys are back in town
The boys are back in town - the boys are back in town
The boys are back in town - the boys are back in town
Spread the word around
The boys are back in town - the boys are back in town
The boys are back, the boys are back

The boys are back in town again
Been hangin' down at Dino's
The boys are back in town again

As I was goin' over the Cork and Kerry mountains
I saw Captain Farrell and his money he was countin'
I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier
I said, "Stand and deliver or the devil he may take ya."

Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Whack for my daddy-o, whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o

I took all of his money and it was a pretty penny
I took all of his money and I brought it home to Molly
She swore that she'd love me, never would she leave me
But the devil take that woman for you know she trick me easy

Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Whack for my daddy-o, whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o

Being drunk and weary I went to Molly's chamber
Takin' my Molly with me and I never knew the danger
For about six or maybe seven in walked Captain Farrell
I jumped up, fired off my pistols and I shot him with both barrels

Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Whack for my daddy-o, whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o

Now, some men like the fishin' and some men like the fowlin'
And some men like to hear a cannon ball a-roarin'
But me, I like sleepin', specially in my Molly's chamber
But here I am in prison, here I am with a ball and chain, yeah

Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Whack for my daddy-o, whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o

I got drunk on whiskey-o
And I loved, I loved, I loved, I loved, I loved, I loved my Molly-o
