washington jail

jackson c. frank

i love little willie

little willie's my dear

if you'd a think i don't love her

you got a foolish idea

sittin' in the jail house

my back 'gainst the wall

old corn liquor was the cause of it all

the judge said 'stand up

george'

dry all your tears

you're sentenced to raleigh for 22 years

22 years willie

22 years

i'm sentenced to raleigh for 22 years

write me a letter

back it by mail

post it in care of the washington jail

the train has come up and now it is gone

taking you away

lord

just leaving this song
