[Chorus]
Let us sing a prisoner's anthem,
Let it echo through the cells,
All along the halls and landings,
Let our hearts and voices swell.

[Chorus]
Let us sing the prisoner's anthem,
Let it echo through the cells,
All along the halls and landings,
Let our hearts and voices swell.

[Chorus]
Let us sing a prisoner's anthem,
Let it echo through the cells,
All along the halls and landings,
Let our hearts and voices swell.

[Verse]
Well, let us sing of home and loved ones,
And the things that keep us sane,
Of the friends who will be waiting,
When we all walk free again.

[Chorus]
Well, let us sing a prisoner's anthem,
Let it echo through the cells,
All along the halls and landings,
Let our hearts and voices swell.

[Verse]
Well, there's a part that can't be captured,
In each woman and in each man,
For the spirit cannot be shackled,
Although they chain our feet and hands.

[Chorus]
Well, let us sing a prisoner's anthem,
Let it echo through the cells,
All along the halls and landings,
Let our hearts and voices swell.

[Verse]
So come all you screws and warders,
Don't you think that, that it's a crime?
Although you do your best to break us,
We still stand as we do our time.

[Chorus]
So, let us sing a prisoner's anthem,
Let it echo through the cells,
All along the halls and landings,
Let our hearts and voices swell.

[Chorus]
Well, let us sing a prisoner's anthem,
And let it echo through the cells,
All along the halls and landings,
Let our hearts and our spirits swell.
