Lyrics Please Mr. Jailor (Live At the Iridium, June 2010) - Jeff Beck , Imelda May

Please Mr. Jailer
Won't you let my man go free, ohhh
Please Mr. Jailer
Won't you let my man go free
That night in October 1953
How could he be in Frisco
He was home with me
Please Mr. Jailer
Won't you let my man go free, go free
You put him in a death cell
And then you change your mind
And then when you reprieved him
You give him 99! Ohhhhh
Please Mr. Jailer
Won't you let my man go free, ohhh
Please Mr. Jailer
Won't you let my man go free
I know that no other
One will ever do
And I know the answer
Is all up to you
Please Mr. Jailer
Won't you let my man go free, go free
I've been down here so often,
You don't even ask my name.
And if you keep him all his life,
I'll be here just the same, ohhhh
Please Mr. Jailer
Won't you let my man go free, ohhh yeah
Please Mr. Jailer
Won't you let my man, won't you let my man, let him, let him go free, ohhhh
That night in October 1953
How could he be in Frisco
He was home with me
Please Mr. Jailer
Won't you let my man go free, go free, go free, go free, go free, go free
