Laura Veirs - Jailhouse Fire lyrics
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 fenceLaura Veirs - Jailhouse Fire - http://motolyrics.com/laura-veirs/jailhouse-fire-lyrics.html
 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
