Jailer, bring me water
Jailer, bring me water
Jailer, bring me water
My throat is kind-a dry
Well, I never had me no money
Never had me no money
Never had me no money
I ain't that kind of guy
Jailer, bring me, bring me water
Jailer, bring me, bring me water
Jailer, bring me water
My throat is kind-a dry
I'm gonna work to the good Lord calls me
Be workin' to the good Lord calls me
I work until the good Lord calls me
It'll be in the by and by
Jailer, bring me, bring me water
Jailer, bring me, bring me water
Jailer, bring me water
My throat is kind-a dry
Jailer, if you see my baby
Jailer, if you see my baby
Jailer, if you see my baby
Just tell her I said: "Bye bye"
Everybody
Jailer, bring me, bring me water
Jailer, bring me bring me water
Jailer, bring me water
My throat is kind-a dry
Everybody
Jailer, bring me, bring me water
Jailer, bring me, bring me water
Jailer, bring me water
My throat is kind-a dry
One more time
Jailer, bring me, bring me water
Jailer, bring me, bring me water
Jailer, bring me water
My throat is kind-a dry
