In 47’ Portland, Maine
They put away Andy Dufresne
Sentenced to a century
In Shawshank Penitentiary
Hammer and chisel
Poster of Rita
Gets involved with all their illicit finances
He’s digging down
He’ s digging down
In the cinderblock and mud - his picks and he scrapes
He’s diggin down
They’ll never let him go
The warden sealed his fate
The only option now is escape
Now Tommy came in 65’
With news to keep his hope alive
The warden didn't give a damn
He couldn't lose his money-man
Andy’s got his plan all set
tells Red something he wont forget
A package buried in a field
The secret fortune it concealed
Shake the rocks out
Crawl through shit
Your money now belongs to Randall Stevens
He’s digging down
He’s digging down
Through the cinderblock and mud - he picks and he scrapes
He’s diggin down
They’ll never let him go
The warden sealed his fate
The only option now is escape
Well in the box Red found a note
Met Andy down in mexico...
