《I’m Here To Get My Baby Out Of Jail》歌词

[00:00:00] I'm Here To Get My Baby Out Of Jail - Hank Snow

[00:00:05] I'm not in your town to stay

[00:00:08] Said a lady old and gray

[00:00:10] To the warden of the penitentiary

[00:00:15] I'm not in your town to stay

[00:00:17] And I'll soon be on my way

[00:00:20] I'm just here to get my baby out of jail

[00:00:24] (Yes warden) you know I want my baby out of jail

[00:00:30] I tried to raise my baby right

[00:00:32] I have prayed both day and night

[00:00:35] That he wouldn't follow the footsteps of his dad

[00:00:40] I have searched both far and wide

[00:00:42] And I feared that he had died

[00:00:44] But at last I found my baby here in jail

[00:00:48] (Yes warden) you know it's good to

[00:00:52] Find my baby here in jail

[00:00:55] It was five years today when my husband passed away

[00:01:00] He was found eath the snow so cold and white

[00:01:04] Made a vow to keep his ring his golden watch

[00:01:07] And his chain

[00:01:09] But the county laid my husband in the grave

[00:01:13] (Yes warden) the county laid my dearest

[00:01:16] Papa in the grave

[00:01:19] I will pawn you my watch I will pawn you my chain

[00:01:24] I will pawn you my golden diamond ring

[00:01:28] I will wash all your clothes I will scrub

[00:01:32] All your floors

[00:01:33] If this will get my baby out of jail

[00:01:37] (Yes warden) you know I want my baby out of jail

[00:01:43] Then I heard the warden say to that lady

[00:01:47] So old and gray

[00:01:48] I will bring your darling baby to your side

[00:01:52] Two iron gates swung wide apart She held her

[00:01:56] Darling to her heart

[00:01:58] She kissed her baby boy and then she died

[00:02:01] (But smiling) in the arms of her dear

[00:02:05] Darling boy she died
