'lectric Chair Blues Lyrics

I walked to the jail with my partner : asked him how come
he's here
I had a *ruckus* with my family : they going to send me
to the electric chair

I wonder why they electrocute a man : *if he line*
Because the current's much stronger : *when they send it
straight out on the line*

*I said to the electrocutor* : *awful lousy crime*
And my baby asked the judge : was he going to electrocute that man of mine

Going to get me a taxi : to take me away from here
I don't know but one thing in this world : could keep me
*married* to the electric chair

I feel like jumping in the ocean : I feel like jumping in
the deep blue sea
There wasn't no blood left in my heart : and they brought
my electrocuted daddy to me
