Elvis Presley
Jailhouse Rock (1957)
(words & music by Jerry Leiber - Mike Stoller)
Verse 1
There's no joy in my heart,only sorrow
And I'm sad as a man can be
I sit alone in the darkness of my lonely room
And this room is a prison to me
Chorus 1
I look at window
and what to I see
I see a bird
way up in the tree
I want to be free free
Free - ee - ee - ee
I want to be free
like the bird in the tree
