The Interrupters – You’re Gonna Find A Way Out lyrics

[Verse 1]
He's got the best record collection
And he makes the best record selection
But when he drinks yea he'll start flexin'
Get arrested and end up in correction
Because he's got a lot of pent up aggression
There was an officer at the intersection
Everyone got away except him
And now he's got a lot of time for reflection

[Chorus]
Rude boy in a penitentiary, locked up not where you wanna be
You're gonna find a way out
Rude boy in a penitentiary, locked up not where you wanna be
You're gonna find a way out
You're gonna find a way out now

[Verse 2]
Four walls been driving him mental
The location of the jail is central
And he don't like to get sentimental
When his girl brings a family memento
In his cell block there's a dirty window
Where he can see the sun and moon glow
But the warden just caught him with a bindle
And now he won't get released December

[Chorus]
Rude boy in a penitentiary, locked up not where you wanna be
You're gonna find a way out
Rude boy in a penitentiary, locked up not where you wanna be
You're gonna find a way out
You're gonna find a way out
You're gonna find a way out
You're gonna find a way out

[Bridge]
He got paroled and got a smith & wesson
And he always kept it on him for protection
Shot a man in the street for disrespecting
Rude boy when will you learn your lesson?!

[Chorus]
Rude boy in a penitentiary, locked up not where you wanna be
You're gonna find a way out
Rude boy in a penitentiary, locked up not where you wanna be
You're gonna find a way out, now
