[Chorus]
Somewhere in Allentown Jail
My heart waits in Allentown Jail
[Verse 1]
They've locked up my darlin' in Allentown Jail
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
And no one has come forth to put up his bail
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
They say at the courthouse he'll never go free
Never go free
'Cause he stole a diamond, a beautiful diamond
To give, to give to me
[Chorus]
Somewhere in Allentown Jail
My heart waits in Allentown Jail
[Verse 2]
You'll find none like him though you search the world 'round
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
And that's why I'll need the best lawyer in town
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
I must find a lawyer, the best one in town
Or can't you see?
My love stole a diamond, a beautiful diamond
To prove his love tor me
[Chorus]
Somewhere in Allentown Jail
My heart waits in Allentown Jail
[Outro]
My heart waits in Allentown Jail
