Please mr. Jailer, won't you let my man go free?

Please mr. Jailer, won't you let my man go free?

He don't belong in prison, though he's guilty as can be

But the only crime he's guilty of is simply loving me

Please mr. Jailer, won't you let my man go free?

(Please mr. Jailer) won't you let my man go free?

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Please mr. Jailer, won't you let this jailbird free?

Whoa ho ho

Just look into his eyes, open up that door

Just listen to his guitar, you'll know the score

Please mr. Jailer, let an honest man go free

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Please mr. Jailer, don't you make no lifer outta me

I'm innocent, I swear it. Let my woman testify

She'll tell you where I was that night

Yeah, I'm his alibi

Please mr. Jailer, won't you let my man go free?

Well I'm tired of pressing liscense plates down in this rotten hole

I gotta reach the outside before I lose control

Please mr. Jailer, don't you make no lifer outta me

Yeah yeah yeah

Please mr. Jailer, let me out of this penitentiary

(Whoa, let me out)

Please mr. Jailer, don't you make no lifer out of me

(Please mr. Jailer) won't you let my baby go free?

Whoa ho ho oh, whoa ho, let my man go free

Whoa oh oh, don't make no lifer out of me

Please mr. Jailer, can't you see how much love she's got for me

Well, let him go! Let him go! Let him go! Let my man go free

Yeah whoa

Please mr jailer, let me out!

Please mr. Jailer, don't make me shout

Please mr. Jailer, well let me out!
