Verse 1
(G major) I'm not in your town to stay
Said the lady old and gray
To the warden (D major) of the penitentiary (G major)
I'm not in your town to stay
And I'll soon be on my way
I'm just (D major) here to get my baby out of (G major) jail
Yes, (C major) Warden, I'm just (D major) here
to get my baby out (G major) of jail
I've tried to raise my baby right
I have prayed both day and night
That he (D major) wouldn't follow
the footsteps of his (G major) dad
I have searched both far and wide
and I feared that he had died
But at last (D major) I found my baby (G major) here in jail
Yes, (C major) Warden,
at (D major) last I found my baby here (G major) in jail
It was just five years today
when his daddy passed away
He was found (D major) beneath the snow
so cold and white (G major)
T 'was then I vowed to keep his ring
and his gold watch and his chain
Then the county (D major) laid his
daddy in (G major) the grave
Yes, (C major) warden, the kind (D major) that laid
his gavet in (G major) the grave
Then I heard the warden say
to the lady, old and gray
I'll go bring (D major) your darlin',
baby, to (G major) your side
Two iron gates one wide apart
She held her darlin' to her heart
She kissed (D major) her baby boy
and then (G major) she died
But (C major) smilin'
She kissed her baby boy (G major)
and then (G major) she died (G major) you
