Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak Somewhere in this town See me and the boys we don't like it So were getting up and going down Hiding low looking right to left If you see us coming I think it's best To move away do you hear what I say From under my breath Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak Somewhere in the town Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak So don't you be around Don't you be around Tonight there's gonna be trouble Some of us won't survive See the boys and me mean business Bustin' out dead or alive I can hear the hound dogs on my trail All hell breaks loose, alarm and sirens wail Like the game if you lose Go to jail Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak Somewhere in the town Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak So don't you be around Tonight there's gonna trouble I'm gonna find myself in Tonight there's gonna be trouble So woman stay with a friend You know it's safer Breakout! Tonight there's gonna be a breakout Into the city zones Don't you dare to try and stop us No one could for long Searchlight on my trail Tonight's the night all systems fail Hey you good lookin' female Come here! Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak Somewhere in the town Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak So don't you be around Tonight there's gonna be trouble I'm gonna find myself in Tonight there's gonna be trouble So woman stay with a friend

Foi lançada originalmente como faixa-título do álbum homônimo da banda em 1976.
Torna-se uma das canções mais populares do Thin Lizzy, recebendo frequente programação em rádios de rock clássico.
Destaca-se pela harmonia dupla dos guitarristas e pelo uso característico do pedal wah-wah por Brian Robertson.
A letra de Phil Lynott narra uma fuga prisional, utilizando a personificação típica dos "cacetões" vista também em "The Boys Are Back in Town" e "The Rocker".
Uma versão alternativa com uma curta introdução falada e partes adicionais de guitarra foi incluída no disco bônus da edição deluxe remasterizada de 2011.
