歌詞

I'm Just Here to Get My Baby Out of Jail (Karl & Harty) D I'm not in your town to stay Said a lady old and grey A d To the warden of the penitentiary I'm not in your town to stay And I'll soon be on my way A d I'm just here to get my baby out of jail G Oh warden A d I'm just here to get 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 Oh warden At last I found my baby here in jail. It was just five years today When his daddy passed away He was found beneath the snow So cold and white 'twas then I vowed to take his ring And his gold watch and his chain Then the county laid his daddy in the grave, Yes warden The county laid his daddy in the grave. I will pawn you his watch I will pawn you his chain I will pawn you my diamond wedding ring I will wash all your clothes I will scrub all your floors If that will get my baby out of jail, yes warden, If that will get my baby out of jail. I'm not in your town to stay Said a lady old and grey I'm just here to get my baby out of jail Yes warden I'm just here to get my baby out of jail. Bjs
