- Cell Bound Blues Lyrics / with translations[Verse 1]
Hey, hey, jailer, tell me what have I done?
Hey, hey, jailer, tell me what have I done?
You've got me all bound in chains, did I kill that woman's son?
[Verse 2]
All bound in prison, all bound in jail
All bound in prison, all bound in jail
Cold iron bars all around me, no one to go my bail
[Verse 3]
I've got a mother and father livin' in a cottage by the sea
Got a mother and father livin' in a cottage by the sea
Got a sister and brother, I wonder do they think of poor me?
[Verse 4]
I walked in my room the other night
My man walked in and begins to fight
I took my gun in my right hand
Told him, folks, I don't wanna kill my man
When I said that, he hit me 'cross my hеad
First shot I fired, my man fell dead
Thе papers came out and told the news
That's why I said I got the cell bound blues
Hey, hey, jailer, I got the cell bound blues
Hey, hey, jailer, tell me what have I done?
Hey, hey, jailer, tell me what have I done?
You've got me all bound in chains, did I kill that woman's son?
[Verse 2]
All bound in prison, all bound in jail
All bound in prison, all bound in jail
Cold iron bars all around me, no one to go my bail
[Verse 3]
I've got a mother and father livin' in a cottage by the sea
Got a mother and father livin' in a cottage by the sea
[Verse 4]
I walked in my room the other night
My man walked in and begins to fight
I took my gun in my right hand
Told him, folks, I don't wanna kill my man
When I said that, he hit me 'cross my hеad
First shot I fired, my man fell dead
Thе papers came out and told the news
That's why I said I got the cell bound blues
Hey, hey, jailer, I got the cell bound blues
