I'm Here to Get My Baby out of Jail - Hank Snow[00:00:00]

"I'm not in your town to stay"[00:00:05]

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

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

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

And I'll soon be on my way[00:00:16]

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

Yes warden[00:00:21]

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

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

I have prayed both day and night[00:00:30]

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

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

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

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

Yes warden[00:00:44]

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

It was five years today when my husband passed away[00:00:50]

He was found beneath the snow so cold and white[00:00:54]

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

Golden watch and his chain[00:01:01]

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

Yes warden[00:01:06]

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

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

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

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

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

Yes warden[00:01:42]

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

Then I heard the warden say to the lady old and gray[00:01:48]

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

Two iron gates swung wide apart She held her darling to her heart[00:01:57]

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

But smiling[00:02:04]

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