Read me the letter, baby, do not leave out the words
Stories and cigarettes ruin lives of lesser girls
And I wanna know
'Cause I want you to know
And it's a strange condition
A day in prison
It's got me out of my head, and I don't know what I came for
Send me the money, baby, do not leave out the wage
You know you're the best thing ever to come out of this place
And I want you to know
'Cause I wanna know
And it's a strange condition
A day in prison
It's got me out of my head, and I don't know what I came for
Oh, I want you to know
It's a strange condition
A day in prison
It's got me out of my head, and I don't know what I came for
Oh, I want you to know
I want you to know
So leave out the others, baby, say I'm the only one
Cut out the uniforms and settle with the sun
Hey, I want you to know
'Cause I wanna know
And it's a strange condition
And life in prison
It's got me outta my head, and I don't know what I came for
Oh, I want you to know
I want you to know
I want you to know
Yeah, I want you to know
I want you to know
Yeah, I want you to know
I want you to know
'Cause I gotta know
Yeah, I gotta know
Yeah, I gotta know
Yeah, I gotta know
Oh oh
Stories and cigarettes ruin lives of lesser girls
And I wanna know
'Cause I want you to know
And it's a strange condition
A day in prison
It's got me out of my head, and I don't know what I came for
Send me the money, baby, do not leave out the wage
You know you're the best thing ever to come out of this place
And I want you to know
'Cause I wanna know
And it's a strange condition
A day in prison
It's got me out of my head, and I don't know what I came for
Oh, I want you to know
It's a strange condition
A day in prison
It's got me out of my head, and I don't know what I came for
Oh, I want you to know
I want you to know
So leave out the others, baby, say I'm the only one
Cut out the uniforms and settle with the sun
Hey, I want you to know
'Cause I wanna know
And it's a strange condition
And life in prison
It's got me outta my head, and I don't know what I came for
Oh, I want you to know
I want you to know
I want you to know
Yeah, I want you to know
I want you to know
Yeah, I want you to know
I want you to know
'Cause I gotta know
Yeah, I gotta know
Yeah, I gotta know
Yeah, I gotta know
Oh oh
