The gates have opened Now I'm a free man My time is over I need a new plan But I've had no loving For a year and a day My lady's waiting Got a taste for her wine She's wearing money But none of it's mine She's been surviving While I've been wasting away
Back in my room It ain't quite the same You can't hide it I'm onto your game
Rough justice, there's no disguise And I can tell by The look in your eyes Rough justice, I've had my share I've done my time But I'm still running scared Rough justice Coming down on me Long arm of the law Never setting me free Rough justice, I bide my time
Back in action, I'm riding the crest And putting all that I've learned to the test No complications Taking it day by day Freedom of movement Freedom of choice Free to be right back here With the boys Ready to listen But you've got nothing to say
Back in my room It ain't quite the same Just can't help it I'm part of your game
Back in my room It ain't quite the same You can't hide it Just part of your game
