Please, Mr. Jailer - Wynona Carr

Please Mr. Jailer

Won’t you let my man go free

Please Mr. Jailer

Won’t you let my man go free

That night in October

How could he be in Frisco

He was at home with me

Please Mr. Jailer

Won’t you let my man go free

You put him in a death cell

Then you change your mind

Then when you reprived him

You gave him 99

Please Mr. Jailer

Won’t you let my man go free

Please Mr. Jailer

Won’t you let my man go free

I know that no other

One will ever do

And I know that the answer’s

All up to you

Please Mr. Jailer

Won’t you let my man go free

Been down here so often

You don’t even ask my name

And if you keep him here all his life

I’ll be here just the same

Please

Won’t you let my man go free

yeah yeah

Mr. Jailer

Won’t you let my man go free

That night in October

How could he be in Frisco

He was at home with me

Please Mr. Jailer

Let my man go free
