I'm Here to Get My Baby Out of Jail - The Everly Brothers (艾佛利兄弟)[00:00:00]
"I'm not in your town to stay "[00:00:04]
Said a lady old and gray[00:00:07]
To the warden of the penitentiary[00:00:11]
"I'm not in your town to stay[00:00:19]
And I'll soon be on my way[00:00:22]
I'm just here to get my baby out of jail[00:00:26]
Oh warden [00:00:32]
I'm just here to get my baby out of jail"[00:00:34]
"I tried to raise my baby right[00:00:41]
I have prayed both day and night[00:00:45]
That he wouldn't follow the footsteps of his dad[00:00:49]
I have searched both far and wide[00:00:56]
And I feared that he had died[00:01:00]
But at last I've found my baby here in jail[00:01:03]
Oh warden [00:01:10]
At last I've found my baby here in jail"[00:01:12]
"It was just five years today[00:01:19]
When his daddy passed away[00:01:22]
He was found beneath the snow so cold and white[00:01:26]
T'was then I bowed to take his ring[00:01:33]
And his gold watch and his chain[00:01:37]
Then the county laid his daddy in the grave[00:01:41]
Yes warden [00:01:47]
The county laid his daddy in the grave"[00:01:49]
"I will pawn you his watch[00:01:56]
I will pawn you his chain[00:01:59]
I will pawn you my diamond wedding ring[00:02:03]
I will wash all your clothes[00:02:11]
I will scrub all your floors[00:02:14]
If that will get my baby out of jail[00:02:19]
Yes warden [00:02:24]
If that will get my baby out of jail"[00:02:26]
Then I heard the warden say[00:02:33]
To the lady old and gray:[00:02:37]
"I'll go bring your darling baby to your side"[00:02:40]
Two iron gates swung wide apart[00:02:47]
She held her darling to her heart[00:02:51]
She kissed her baby boy and then she died[00:02:55]
But smiling [00:03:01]
She kissed her baby boy and then she died[00:03:03]
"I'm not in your town to stay "[00:03:10]
Said a lady old and gray[00:03:13]
"I'm just here to get my baby out of jail[00:03:17]
Yes warden [00:03:23]
I'm just here to get my baby out of jail"[00:03:24]
