When they sent me to prison
My baby sat down and cried
When they sent me to prison
My baby sat down and cried
She said, "Daddy, you know that I love you"
But you keep me dissatisfied"
I said, "If I didn't love you, baby"
I would not have done my crime"
I said, "If I didn't love you, baby"
I would not have done my crime"
Well, now you know I'm awful sorry
For to leave you behind
She was a smooth little woman
Just as sweet as she could be
She was a smooth little woman
Just as sweet as she could be
Well, she waited and told many lies
Before she turned her back on me
