Jailer bring me water
Jailer bring me water
Jailer bring me water
My throat is kind of dry

Now, I never have me no money
Seem to never have me no money
I never have me no money
Baby you're the reason why

I'm gonna work until the good Lord calls me
I'm gonna work until the good Lord calls me
I'm gonna work until the good Lord calls me
He'll be here by and by

Now, Jailer if you see my Baby
Jailer if you see my baby
Jailer if you see my baby
Just tell her I said good-bye

Jailer bring me water
Jailer bring me water
Jailer bring me water
My throat is kind of dry
