Joliet Blues Lyrics
by Johnny Shines
in G Blues.
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
