Cold, cold, cold, cold, it's cold in the Hutchinson Jail Somebody help me please I'm as helpless as can be And I don't know what my life is comin' to They say I shot a man but I never shot I ran That was my first mistake I'm telling you Ah it's cold in the Hutchinson Jail ah it's cold in the Hutchinson Jail Yeah it's cold, cold, cold, cold, it's cold in the Hutchinson Jail I got a wife in Wichita and a girl in Saginaw And they both ain't heard from me in some time I hate to disappoint 'em both but some feller under oath Said I did it and they believed his story not mine Ah it's cold in the Hutchinson Jail... Snow's all over the ground there ain't one robin around That I'd trust to carry a message to a friend Guess I'll just stay here till spring sure wish I knew what's spring They'd let me out so I can start again Ah it's cold in the Hutchinson Jail... Cold, cold, cold, cold, it's cold in the Hutchinson Jail
