Quick Joey Small went over the wall With a ball an' a chain behind him Quick Joey Small went over the wall Send the dogs right out to find him.
In a striped prision suit with no room to move He headed for the highway With his chain still dragin' He thumbed down a wagon said Well you're goin my way. And they say now
