I've been in jail eleven years and parole has just come through 我已经在监狱里十一年假释刚刚来通过

The gates will soon swing open wide but I'm not going through 门很快就会摆动敞开，但我不会通过

Jail's the only home I know or care to know about 监狱是唯一的家，我知道也不关心了解

Please let me stay where I belong please don't let me out 请让我留下属于我的地方，请不要让我出去

   

How could I tell those friends of mine they've seen the last of me 我怎么会告诉我的那些朋友，他们已经看到了我的最后一

Can't I make you understand I never can be free 我不能让你知道我从来没有可以自由

Cause that's a big unfriendly world and I don't know the route 原因这是一个很大不友好的世界，我不知道路线

That leads to where I may belong please don't let me out 这导致了在那里我可能属于请不要让我出去

   

I had to learn to get along without a lot of things 我必须学会相处没有很多东西

And I had to learn to live with the loneliness confinement brings 我不得不学会忍受孤独带来的约束

And I learnt to take no mail from home or whatever came about 我学会了没有邮件从家里或什么来约

Now I'm dug in and I'm happy here please don't let me out 现在，我挖，我很高兴在这里，请不要让我出去

   

How could I tell those friends of mine... 我怎么会告诉我的那些朋友...

Yes that's a big unfriendly world... 是的，这是一个很大的不友好的世界......
