Pentonville

It's rough

It's wicked and rough

It's hard

Pentonville rough

It's tough

It's wicked and rough

It's hard

Pentonville rough

Now in Pentonville there's all type of nation

Russian, Columbian and Jamaican

Latvian, Croatian and a Polishman

Indian, Chinaman down from Vietnam

And from the Carribbean an Jamaican

Poorly paid people formed the Irish gang

And the Scottish and the Englishman

They're rough

Pentonville tough

It's hard

Wicked and rough

Yeah rough

Pentonville tough

It's hard

Wicked and rough now

Everyday, it's the same

People can't get better

No they can't get tamed

And black up the heads of the sick and the lame

Some men jump out of their brains

Cause they can't take the pressure

Or the shame or the pain

When they see the life, it go down the drain

In Pentonville it's a different ball game

It's rough

Pentonville tough

It's hard

Wicked and rough

Yeah rough

Pentonville tough

It's hard

Wicked and rough now

Lying on my lumpy mattress

Lying on my back

Staring up at the ceiling

Counting all the cracks

And what's happening behind me

Look over my shoulder back

Bill Cole got my breakfast pack

He won't give it back

Ooooooooooh

It's rough

Pentonville tough

It's hard

Wicked and rough

Yeah rough

Pentonville tough

It's hard

Wicked and rough now

Everyday, it's the same

People can't get better

No they can't get tamed

And black up the heads of the sick and the lame

Some men jump out of their brains

Cause they can't take the pressure

Or the shame or the pain

When they see the life, it go down the drain

In Pentonville it's a different ball game

So A wing, B wing, C wing and G Wing

Come help us sing

A wing, B wing, C wing and G Wing

Come help us sing

Because it's rough

Pentonville tough

It's hard

Wicked and rough

Yeah tough

Pentonville rough

It's hard

Wicked and rough
