Thirty Days in the Workhouse

歌詞

Leadbelly Thirty days in the workhouse Six long months in jail Now they got me in trouble No one to go my bail When a man get in trouble Everybody turns him down Now I believe to my soul That I'm prison bound Has a done like my baby told me I wouldn't be here today I would not be in trouble Six long months to stay Now please Mr. Jailer Unlock the door for me The jail house is full of blues And they done come down on me I'm a hard workin' prisoner Sent here without a trial Now my heart is achin' to stay here This great long while
