Jackie DeShannon - Jailer Bring Me Water

Jailer, bring me water
Jailer, bring me water
Jailer, bring me water
My throat is kinda dry

Never had me no money
Never had me no money
Never had me no money
I didn't understand why

I'm gonna work 'til the good Lord call me
I'll work 'til the good Lord calls me
I'll work 'til the good Lord calls me
It'll be in the by and by

Jailer, if you see my baby (Oh, jailer)
Jailer, if you see my baby (Now, jailer)
Jailer, if you see my baby (Oh, jailer)
Tell him I said goodbye

Oh-oh, jailer, won't you bring me water?
Jailer, now (Jailer, won't you bring me water?) whoa, bring me water, now
Jailer, won't you bring me water?
My throat is kinda dry

Jailer, won't you bring me water?
Oh-ho, jailer, won't you bring me water?
Oh-ho, jailer, won't you bring me water?
My throat is kinda dry

Yeah, hey (Jailer, won't you bring me water?) Water, I'm beggin' you
(Jailer, won't you bring me water?) On my knees I'm beggin' you
(Jailer, won't you bring me water?) Jailer, bring me water
(My throat is kinda dry) My throat is kinda dry

Jailer, now, jailer won't you bring me water?
Jailer, won't you bring me water?
Jailer, won't you bring me water?
My throat is kinda dry

Oh, jailer can't you hear me?
(Jailer, won't you bring me water?) Have mercy on me
(Jailer, won't you bring me water?) Oh-ho, jailer, I can't do anything
(Jailer, won't you bring me water?) Oh-ho, jailer
(My throat is kinda dry) My throat is so dog-gone dry

Oh, jailer (Jailer, won't you bring me water?)
Oh, jailer hey (Jailer, won't you bring me water?)
