[00:06.52] | "I'm not in your town to stay,"“ |
[00:09.93] | Said a lady old and gray |
[00:13.24] | To the warden of the penitentiary |
[00:19.31] | "I'm not in your town to stay“ |
[00:22.69] | And I'll soon be on my way |
[00:26.04] | I'm just here to get my baby out of jail |
[00:30.60] | Yes warden, |
[00:33.80] | I'm just here to get my baby out of jail" |
[00:38.95] | |
[00:39.72] | "I've tried to raise my baby right“ |
[00:43.64] | I have prayed both day and night |
[00:46.73] | That he never follow footsteps of his dad |
[00:52.58] | I have searched both far and wide |
[00:56.37] | I have feared that he had died |
[00:59.62] | And at last I found my baby here in jail |
[01:04.86] | Yes warden, |
[01:07.30] | But it's good to found my baby here in jail" |
[01:12.61] | |
[01:34.70] | "I will pawn you my watch“ |
[01:37.80] | I will pawn you my chain |
[01:41.24] | I will pawn you my diamond ring |
[01:47.54] | I will wash all your clothes |
[01:51.00] | I will scrub all your floors |
[01:54.49] | If that will get my baby out of jail |
[01:58.90] | Yes warden, |
[02:01.93] | You know I want my darling out of jail" |
[02:07.43] | |
[02:08.20] | Then we heard the warden say |
[02:11.82] | To the lady old and gray: |
[02:15.24] | "I'll bring your baby boy to your side"“ |
[02:21.60] | Two iron gates swung wide apart |
[02:24.67] | She held her darling to her heart |
[02:28.22] | She kissed her baby boy and then she died |
[02:32.93] | But smiling, |
[02:35.40] | In the arms of her dear boy there she died |
[02:43.19] | In the arms of her dear boy there she died |
[00:06.52] | " I' m not in your town to stay,"" |
[00:09.93] | Said a lady old and gray |
