Lyrics Jailhouse Blues - C.W. Stoneking

Jailhouse Blues

You hear me singin
Down in the bottom of the world
A thousand miles from nowhere, dreamin bout a girl
She used to love me but I, went away
They gonna keep me here til the Judgement Day
Lord, lord, lord, I got the Jailhouse Blues
Ain’t no tellin
What a man will do
This old world, to make it through
Some would murder with a gun or a knife
Some would lock a man away for the rest of his life
Lord, lord, lord, I got the Jailhouse Blues
I got the Jailhouse Blues
Just as blue as I can be
My baby got a heart
Like a rock in the bottom of the sea
I got the Jailhouse Blues
An it ain’t no lie, lawd
Lock on the door.
I broke the law
I got the Jailhouse Blues, (play it for me.)
They says a blind man
Don’t see nothin when he dream
There’s plenty things, wish I never seen
I wish I never seen her askin why
When they come and taken me, the way that she cried
Lord, lord, lord
I got the Jailhouse Blues
I got the Jailhouse Blues
Just as blue as I can can be
My baby got a heart
Like a rock in the bottom of the sea
I got the Jailhouse Blues
An it ain’t no lie, lawd
Lock on the door, I broke the law
I got the Jailhouse blues
I got the Jailhouse Blues
Just as blue as I can be
My baby got a heart
Like a rock in the bottom of the sea
I got the Jailhouse Blues
An it ain’t no lie, lawd
Lock on the door, I broke the law
I got the Jailhouse Blues
