I'm not in your town to stay, cried a lady [Bb] old and gray to the [F] warden of the [Bb] penitentiary.
I'm not in your town to stay, and I'll soon be on my way.
I'm [F] just here to get my baby out of jail.
[Eb] Yes, warden, [F] I'm just here to get my baby [Bb] out of jail.
[F] [Bb] Tried to raise my baby right, and I prayed both day and [F] night
that he'd never follow the footsteps of his dad.
[Bb] I had searched both far and wide, and I feared that he had died
[F] when at last I found my baby [Bb] here in jail.
[Eb] Yes, warden, [F] I'm just here to get my baby [Bb] out of jail.
[F]
I will pawn you my watch.
I will pawn you my chain.
I will pawn you my golden wedding [Bb] ring.
I will pawn you my cook.
Got the words to that verse.
[F] If that will get my baby out of jail.
[Bb] [Eb] Yes, warden, I'm [F] just here to get my baby [Bb] out of jail.
[N] All right, thank you very much.
I want to do another song here featuring Harmonica.
And then I want to get the stool there and sit down and do some slow ballad
type songs that we want to do for this album and especially for you.
