[Verse 1]
C C7
I'm not in your town to stay, said a lady old and grey
G7 G C
To the warden of the penitentiary
C7
I'm not in your town to stay and I'll soon be on my way
G7 G C F
I'm just here to get my baby out of jail (yes warden)
G G7 C
You know I want my baby out the jail
[Verse 2]
C C7
I tried to raise my baby right, I have prayed both day and night
G7 G C
That he wouldn't follow footsteps of his dad
C7
I have searched both far and wide and I feared that he had died
G7 G C F
But at last I found my baby here in jail (yes warden)
G G7 C
You know it's good to find my baby here in jail
[Verse 3]
C C7
It was just five years today, when my husband passed away
G7 G C
He was found beneath the snow so cold and white
C C7
't Was that I vowed to take his ring, his gold watch and his chain
G7 G C F
But the county laid my husband in the grave (yes warden)
G G7 C
The county laid my baby's papa in the grave

[Verse 4]
C C7
I will pawn you my watch, I will pawn you my ring
G7 G C
I will pawn you my diamond wedding ring
C7
I will wash all your clothes, I will scrub all your floors
G G7 C F
If this will get my baby out of jail (yes warden)
G G7 C
You know I want my baby out of jail
[Verse 5]
C C7
Then I heard the warden say, to the lady old and grey
G G7 C
I'll go bring your darlin' baby to your side
C7
Two iron gates swang wide apart, she held her darlin' to her heart
G G7 C F
She kissed her baby boy and then she died (but smiling)
G G7 C
In the arms of her dear darlin' boy she died
