Please, Mr Jailer Lyrics – 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, 1953
How could he be in ‘Frisco, he was home with me?

Please, Mr Jailer, won’t you let my man go free
You put him in a death cell
And then you changed your mind
Then when you reprieved him

You gave him 99
Please, Mr Jailer, won’t you let my man go free
Yeah, yeah
Please, Mr Jailer, won’t you let my man go free

I know that no other one will ever do
And I know the answer’s all up to you
Please, Mr Jailer, won’t you let my man go free
I’ve been down here so often

You don’t even ask my name
And if you keep him all his life
I’ll be here just the same
Please, won’t you let my man go free

Yeah, yeah
Please, Mr Jailer, won’t you let my man go free
That night in October, 1953
How could he be in ‘Frisco, he was home with me?

Please, Mr Jailer, won’t you let my man go free
Go free
Go free
Go free

Go free
Go free
