[Verse 1]
You can go buy a shottie, hold up the local TAB
Or steal a few VCRs or try a smash and grab
You won't be getting half the loot, your lawyer QC will
You may as well obey the law, I sentence you to Rowville

[Chorus]
Row, Rowville
Row, Rowville
I sentence you to fourteen years in Row, Rowville

[Verse 2]
Why shoot a man in Reno just to watch him die?
Go down to the casino to see a deadened eye
It sure won't be Lloyd Williams who hears the judge's will
"Citizen, for obedience, I sentence you to Rowville"

[Chorus]
Row, Rowville
Row, Rowville
I sentence you to fourteen years in Row, Rowville

[Bridge]
I will sentence you
Sentence you, sentence you
I will sentence you
Sentence you, sentence you
[Verse 3]
For crime against the person, the tabloid press will shout
The animal be locked away and never let him out
For crime against property, you will have to pay the bill
For crime against the spirit, I sentence you to Rowville

[Chorus]
Row, Rowville
Row, Rowville
Row, Rowville
Row, Rowville
I sentence you to fourteen years in Row, Rowville
