Some people that I know have the opinion
That married life just ain't the way to go
They liken it to being in a prison
And if they're right I want them all to know

I'm livin' in Lovenworth, I'm livin' in Lovenworth
And it ain't really bad at all
I'm livin' in Lovenworth, yes I'm livin' in Lovenworth
And me and the warden have a ball

The warden wakes me up with morning kisses
Three little inmates pull me out of bed
Hard labor in the backyard on the weekends
And the boys around here, they all call me Dad

I'm livin' in Lovenworth, yes I'm livin' in Lovenworth
And it ain't really bad at all
I'm livin' in Lovenworth, yes I'm livin' in Lovenworth
And me and the warden have a ball

Kisses are the bars that keep me in this place
The walls are lovin' arms that hold me tight
I guess I could be free if I wanted to be
But I like the way the warden says goodnight

I'm livin' in Lovenworth, yes I'm livin' in Lovenworth
And it ain't really bad at all
I'm livin' in Lovenworth, yes I'm livin' in Lovenworth
And me and the warden have a ball

And me and the warden have a ball
