Johnny Shines Joliet Blues
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
She was a smoother woman
Just as sweet as she could be
She was a smoother woman
Just as sweet as she could be
Well she waited and told me to lie
Before she turned her back on me
