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