I\x27m Here To Get My Baby Out Of Jail

歌曲歌詞

I'm not in your town to stay

Said a lady old and gray

To the warden of the penitentiary

I'm not in your town to stay

And I'll soon be on my way

I'm just here to get my baby out of jail

(Yes warden) you know I want my baby out of jail

I tried to raise my baby right

I have prayed both day and night

That he wouldn't follow the footsteps of his dad

I have searched both far and wide

And I feared that he had died

But at last I found my baby here in jail

(Yes warden) you know it's good to

Find my baby here in jail

It was five years today when my husband passed away

He was found eath the snow so cold and white

Made a vow to keep his ring his golden watch

And his chain

But the county laid my husband in the grave

(Yes warden) the county laid my dearest

Papa in the grave

I will pawn you my watch I will pawn you my chain

I will pawn you my golden diamond ring

I will wash all your clothes I will scrub

All your floors

If this will get my baby out of jail

(Yes warden) you know I want my baby out of jail

Then I heard the warden say to that lady
