Allison:
Please Mr. Jailer
Won't you let my man go free?
Please Mr. Jailer
Won't you let my man go free?
He don't belong in prison
Though he's guilty as can be
But the only crime he's guilty of
Is simply loving me
Please Mr. Jailer
Won't you let my man go free?

All:
Please Mr. Jailer

Allison:
Won't you let my man go free?
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Inmates:
Please Mr. Jailer
Won't you let this jailbird free?
Whoa oh oh!

Allison:
Just look into his eyes
Open up that door
Just listen to his guitar
You'll know the score

Cry Baby:
Please Mr. Jailer
Let an honest man go free

Allison:
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Cry Baby and Inmates:
Please Mr. Jailer
Don't you make no lifer outta me
I'm innocent, I swear it
Let my woman testify
She'll tell you where I was that night

Allison:
Yeah I'm his alibi

All:
Please Mr. Jailer

Allison:
Won't you let my man go free?

Cry Baby and Inmates:

Please Mr. Jailer
Don't you make no lifer outta me

Alison:
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Cry Baby and Inmates:
