jailhouse blues - dinah washington lyrics

you hear me singin
down in the bottom of the world
a thousand miles from nowhere, dreamin bout a girl
she used to love me but i, went away

they gonna keep me here til the judgement day
lord, lord, lord, i got the jailhouse blues

ain’t no tellin
what a man will do
this old world, to make it through
some would murder with a gun or a knife
some would lock a man away for the rest of his life
lord, lord, lord, i got the jailhouse blues
i got the jailhouse blues
just as blue as i can be
my baby got a heart
like a rock in the bottom of the sea
i got the jailhouse blues
an it ain’t no lie, lawd
lock on the door. i broke the law
i got the jailhouse blues, (play it for me.)

they says a blind man
don’t see nothin when he dream
there’s plenty things, wish i never seen
i wish i never seen her askin why
when they come and taken me, the way that she cried
lord, lord, lord
i got the jailhouse blues

i got the jailhouse blues
just as blue as i can can be
my baby got a heart
like a rock in the bottom of the sea
i got the jailhouse blues
an it ain’t no lie, lawd

lock on the door, i broke the law
i got the jailhouse blues
i got the jailhouse blues
just as blue as i can be
my baby got a heart
like a rock in the bottom of the sea
i got the jailhouse blues
an it ain’t no lie, lawd
lock on the door, i broke the law
i got the jailhouse blues
