Cell Bound Blues

Met my man this morning Standing in the door When I got back he said I don't want you no more Goodbye Goodbye Daddy, Goodbye Can't always tell You treat 'em right Your man go out from you Stay out all day and night Goodbye Goodbye Daddy, Goodbye My Daddy wrote me a letter Said Mama please come home When I got home last night Found my man had gone Goodbye Goodbye Daddy, Goodbye Goodbye Goodbye Daddy, Goodbye Ain't got nobody To tell my troubles to Lay down in my bed And cried the whole night 'bout you Goodbye Goodbye Daddy, Goodbye Oh goodbye Daddy Daddy please tell me goodbye If you don't want me, Daddy Mama'll sure lay down and die Goodbye Goodbye Daddy, Goodbye Goodbye Goodbye Daddy, Goodbye Hey, hey, jailer, tell me what have I done? (2) You've got me all bound in chains, did I kill that woman's son? All bound in prison, I'm bound in jail, (2) Cold iron bars all around me, no one to go my bail I've got a mother and father, livin' in a cottage by the sea, (2) Got a sister and brother, wonder do they think of poor me? I walked in my room, the other night My man walked in and begin to fight I took my gun in my right hand, said "Hold him, folks, I don't wanta kill my man." When I did that he hit me 'cross my head First shot I fired, my man fell dead The paper came out and told the news That's why I said I got the cell bound blues Hey, hey, jailer, I got the cell bound blues
