Early one morning
The blues came fallin' down
Early one morning
The blues came fallin' down
I was all locked up in jail
And prison bound
When they had my trial, baby
You couldn't even be found
When they had my trial, baby
You could not be found
I was all locked up in jail
And prison bound
But it's too late to cry, baby
You're daddy's prison bound
When they had my trial, baby
You know you couldn't be found
When they had my trial
Baby, you could not be found
But it's too late to cry, baby
Your daddy's prison bound
I guess I'm out, baby
I ain't got no more to say
Bye, bye, bye, baby
Your daddy ain't go no more to say
But I am all locked up in jail
And prison bound
