Prison Bound Blues

Early one morning the blues came falling down

Early one morning the blues came falling down

All locked up in jail and prison bound

All last night I sat in my cell alone

All last night, ooh, I sat in my cell alone

Thinking of my baby and my happy home

Baby, you will never see my smiling face again

Baby, you will never see my smiling face again

But always remember your daddy has been your friend

Sometimes I wonder why don't you write to me?

Sometimes I wonder why don't you write to me?

If I have been a bad fellow I did not intend to be

When I had my trial, baby, you could not be found

When I had my trial, baby, ooh, you could not be found

So it's too late now, mistreating mama, I'm prison bound
