If 'Slave' changed Lucky Dube's life,  'Prisoner' changed the South African recording industry. In five days, the album sold no less than 100 000 copies and another 120 000 copies in the next three weeks.

Ironically, in the week of its release, eight of South Africa's longest serving political prisoners were released from jail, a major step in South Africa's slow road to democracy. As so may times before, Lucky had unintentionally tapped into the national spirit of freedom-hungry South Africans.

Lyrics:

Somebody told me about it
When I was still a little boy
he said to me, crime does not pay
he said to me, education is the key, yeah
as  a little boy I thought I knew
what I was doing, yeah man
but today here I am in jail

Chorus

I'm a prisoner, I am a prisoner, I am a prisoner

I looked all around me
but to see nothing
but four grey walls staring at me
the policeman said to me, son
they won't build no schools anymore  x3        
all they'll build will be prison, prison
'cos today, yeah

Chorus
I am a prisoner, I am a prisoner, I am a prisoner,
dear Lord

I asked the policeman and said
how much must I pay for my freedom?
he said to me, son
they won't build no schools anymore    x2
they won't build no hospitals
all they'll build will be prison, prison  (x4)

Chorus
(till fade)
