《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

[00:00:07] Said a lady old and gray

[00:00:09] To the warden of the penitentiary

[00:00:13] I'm not in your town to stay

[00:00:15] And I'll soon be on my way

[00:00:18] I'm just here to get my baby out of jail

[00:00:21] Yes warden

[00:00:23] You know I want my baby out of jail

[00:00:27] I tried to raise my baby right

[00:00:29] I have prayed both day and night

[00:00:32] That he wouldn't follow the footsteps of his dad

[00:00:36] I have searched both far and wide

[00:00:38] And I feared that he had died

[00:00:40] But at last I found my baby here in jail

[00:00:44] Yes warden

[00:00:45] You know it's good to find my baby here in jail

[00:00:50] It was five years today

[00:00:52] When my husband passed away

[00:00:54] He was found eath the snow so cold

[00:00:57] And white

[00:00:58] 'Twas then I vowed to take his ring

[00:01:01] And his golden watch and his chain

[00:01:03] But the county laid my husband in the grave

[00:01:06] Yes warden

[00:01:08] The county laid my dearest papa in the grave

[00:01:26] I will pawn you my watch

[00:01:28] I will pawn you my ring

[00:01:30] I will pawn you my diamond wedding ring

[00:01:35] I will wash all your clothes

[00:01:37] I will scrub all your floors

[00:01:39] If that will get my baby out of jail

[00:01:43] Yes warden

[00:01:44] You know I want my baby out of jail

[00:01:49] Then I heard the warden say

[00:01:51] To the lady old and gray

[00:01:53] I will bring your darling baby to your side

[00:01:57] Two iron gates swung wide apart

[00:01:59] She held her darling to her heart

[00:02:01] She kissed her baby boy and then she died

[00:02:04] But smiling

[00:02:07] In the arms of her dear darling boy she died
