Robert Wilkins - Jailhouse Blues lyrics

Ah, look like I can see trouble in the air Ah, look like I can see trouble in the air But ain't only here, friend, it's trouble everywhere Now I wished I'd listened at what my Mother said Now I wished I'd listened at what my Mother said I wouldn't have been bound down in this trouble today Now, I'm lying in jail with my face turned to the wall Now I'm lying in jail with my face turned to the wall And that woman I love, friend, she was the cause of it all Now, the judge gonna sentence me and the clerk's gon' write it down Now, the judge gonna sentence me and the clerk's gon' write it down Tell me they 'cused me of stealin', now I'm fixin' to leave your town I got something to tell you just before I go I got something to tell you just before I go Gettin' out of trouble this time, woman, I won't do wrong no more Ah, the judge gon' give me six months on the road Ah, the judge gon' give me six months on the road Woman, I can't stand it, God in Heaven do know it But I don't mind goin', I'm goin' and leave you here But I don't mind goin', I'm goin' and leave you here These men gon' mistreat you, God knows they don't care I'm gonna tell you this, just before I go I'm gonna tell you this, just before I go When I come back here, woman, you gon' have me some more
