Parole Lyrics


Put down that phone and listen
Baby, how can you be so unkind?
If they catch me out of line only one more time
I'll be down in the slammer 'fore you count to nineI didn't mean to step out without you
And I'm sorry way down in my soul
But you know it ain't easy being onParole with you baby
Parole with you baby
Parole with you baby
Parole with you babyBefore they throw me in the hole
I got to get my dose of Rock and Roll
And it ain't easy being onParole with you baby, baby let goPut down that gun and listen
If you shoot it would be such a waste
'Cause any one of these days, I just might change my ways
And I won't be around to see the look on your faceI know that it might make you happy
To fill my body full of holes
But you know it ain't easy being onParole with you baby
Parole with you baby
Parole with you baby

Parole with you babyBefore they throw me in the hole
I got to get my dose of Rock and Roll
And it ain't easy being onParole with you baby, baby let goPut down the phone and put down the gun
Please let me know you still believe in me, hon
Put down the phone and put down the gun
Please let me know you still believe in me, honeyPut down the phone and put down the gun
Please let me know you still believe in me, honey
Put down the phone and put down the gun
Please let me know you still believe in me, honI didn't mean to step out without you
And I'm sorry way down in my soul
But you know it ain't easy being onParole with you baby
Parole with you baby
Parole with you baby
Parole with you babyBefore they come to get my soul
I got to get my dose of Rock and Roll
And I'd do anything to get off onParole with you baby, baby, let goParole with you baby
Parole with you baby
Parole with you baby

Todd Rundgren is an American singer, songwriter, and producer who started in the 60s with the psychedelic band Nazz in Philadelphia. His solo career started out successfully with such hits as I Saw The Light and Hello It's Me (which was a reworked Nazz tune). He formed a band called Utopia (or Todd Rundgren's Utopia) which concentrated on eccentric progressive epics, while also continuing to release solo albums. His production work started early, with work for Sparks and the New York Dolls, and continued with Meat Loaf, XTC, The Psychedelic Furs, and many others.

Todd Rundgren is well known among his fans as being an electronic music revolutionary. His production techniques, and his belief that he has ability to play just about any instrument at a mastery level, allowed him to release some of the most honest and personal music of his time. Many of his solo albums, including Something/Anything were made completely by himself. That is, he played all the instruments, sang all the vocals, did all of the recording, editing, mixing, and mastering, and even distributed the album through his own record label, Bearsville. In the particular case of Something/Anything, there was actually one side (side 4) which featured songs performed by a studio band, placed on the album to show Todd's ability in working with musicians.

For over thirty years now, Todd Rundgren has had a very successful musical career. He recently fronted, recorded and toured with the band The New Cars, which featured two of his own band members, and two of the remaining The Cars members. In addition, he released a solo album in 2004 entitled Liars, which featured the recurring theme of deceit and broken promises. He toured with a strong band for this album, which included his long-time bassist Kasim Sulton, and former The Tubes drummer, Prarie Prince.

On September 29th, 2008 Rundgren released his 20th studio album "Arena" via Cooking Vinyl Records in the UK (Hi-Fi Recordings in the USA), to critical acclaim.

2011 found him covering Robert Johnsons songs on stage as well as on a CD called "Todd Rundgren's Johnson"
