Jailhouse Fire Blues
 

Hey Mr jailor : don't sleep so sound

Jailhouse on fire : ??? burning down

I say the woman I love : she in the jailhouse now

But please Mr jailor : she got to get out of there somehow

Mmm : my woman in trouble now

I said but one of these good mornings : I'm bound to get her out of jail

When I get my little cell‑block key : I'm going to be country bound

*And hey* Mr jailor : I hope the jailhouse burns down
