Penal Farm Blues - Scrapper Blackwell
Early one morning on my way to the penal farm
Early one morning on my way to the penal farm
Baby all I've done
Ain't done nothing wrong
Loaded in the dog wagon and down the road we go
Loaded in the dog wagon and down the road we go
Oh baby
Oh baby you don't know
Into the office then to the bathhouse below
Into the office then to the bathhouse below
And with a light shower baby we change our clothes
All last night
Baby it seemed so long
All last night
Oh baby it seemed so long
All I've done
I ain't done nothing wrong
I'll tell you people the penal farm is a lonesome place
I'll tell you people the penal farm is a lonesome place
And no one there
To smile up in your face
Oh baby baby
It won't be so long now
Oh baby baby
It won't be so long now
Before your daddy he will be coming home
Oh baby baby won't you come after me
Oh baby baby won't you come after me
My time is up
Penal farm has set me free
