Cell Bound Blues

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Hey, hey, jailer, tell me what have I done? Hey, hey, jailer, tell me what have I done? You've got me all bound in chains, did I kill that woman's son? [Verse 2] All bound in prison, all bound in jail All bound in prison, all bound in jail Cold iron bars all around me, no one to go my bail [Verse 3] I've got a mother and father livin' in a cottage by the sea Got a mother and father livin' in a cottage by the sea Got a sister and brother, I wonder do they think of poor me? [Verse 4] I walked in my room the other night My man walked in and begins to fight I took my gun in my right hand Told him, folks, I don't wanna kill my man When I said that, he hit me 'cross my hеad First shot I fired, my man fell dead Thе papers came out and told the news That's why I said I got the cell bound blues Hey, hey, jailer, I got the cell bound blues
