original west end cast of bonnie and clyde - you're goin' back to jail lyrics

Loading...

blanche (spoken):
we start fresh when you are free in the eyes of the law and saved in the eyes of god

eleanor (spoken):
amen

stella (spoken):
praise the lord

trish (spoken):
thank you jesus

blanche:
we can’t spend our whole lives hidin’, buck
that ain’t no way to live

stella (spoken):
uh uh

trish (spoken):
you hear that buck?

blanche:
it is time to wipe the slate clean
ask the good lord to forgive
eleanore (spoken):
amen

stella (spoken):
praise the lord

trish (spoken):
thank you, jesus, twice!

blanche:
you’ve gotta serve your sentence without fail

stella (spoken):
whoo!

trish (spoken):
buckle up

blanche:
buck, you are goin’ back to jail

buck (spoken):
what the h+ll are you talking about?

blanche:
won’t be scared to turn the corner
or to open our front door
when you’re on the side of justice
you ain’t nervous of the law
now pull yourself together
because you’ve gone pale
buck, you are goin’ back to jail

buck (spoken):
but baby, you don’t know what it’s like in there!

blanche:
i know it’s hard
to share a cell
when you’ve got nothin’ to look at
except prisoners who smell
but when you’re done
when you have served your time
we’ll still be young and in our prime

buck:
ain’t been free more than a minute
ain’t had time to change my shirt
i’ve been dreamin’ of a hot meal
with you as my dessert

bring your face close to mine
and just let me inhale

blanche:
buck, you are going back to jail
buck (spoken):
but baby—

blanche (spoken):
we will call the sheriff and tell him you are turning yourself in
right after church tomorrow

buck (spoken):
blanche!

blanche (spoken):
it’s only just as hard on me, daddy!
well, stella, you know what it’s like to have a husband in jail
tell him how hard it is not having carl around!

[stella]
are you kiddin’?
it’s a treat to get my nails done
and have time to read a book
sure beats washin’ out his longjohns
it’s a pleasure not to cook

[blanche] (spoken)
okay, that’s enough

[stella]
thank god those prison walls
are much too tall to scale
my darlin’s nice and safe in jail

buck (spoken):
i don’t want her comin’ ’round here no more

blanche (spoken):
well, trish’s husband’s been in jail for two years now
and she’s miserable without her man

trish (spoken):
mmhmm
at first, i really missed him
i thought i would waste away
then i met this boy from tucson
and he owned a chevrolet

[blanche]
that’s enough

[trish]
he had a lot of things that my joe lacked
like t++th and hair and cash to be exact
i’ve now got lots of habits i can’t curtail

[blanche]
heavens to betsy!

[trish]
i gotta keep him locked in jail

eleanore & stella & trish:
keep ’em inside
keep ’em inside
if we see ’em once a month
we will be more than satisfied

ain’t that the truth
don’t mean to be unkind
can’t put a price on peace of mind

buck (spoken):
blanche!

blanche:
i ain’t like these other women
i will wait till kingdom come
i want the world to see that
i ain’t married to some bum

it will be hard for us but we’ll come through

buck:
i can’t believe what you are askin’ me to do

blanche:
one thing’s for certain, our love won’t go stale

trish (spoken):
jesus, close your eyes

buck (spoken):
blanche, i ain’t goin’ back

blanche:
yes, buck, you’re goin’ back

women:
tomorrow he’ll be back in jail
