paroles de chanson Send Me to the Electric Chair (Live) - Dinah Washington

Judge, your honor, hear my plea, before you open up your court
I don't want no sympathy, 'cause I just cut my good man's throat
I caught him with a trifling Jane, I warned him once before
I pulled my knife and I went insane, now the rest you already know

So judge, judge, please, Mr. Judge, just send me to the electric chair
Judge, please, Mr. Judge, I just wanna get away from here
I wanna take a journey, to the devil down below
I killed my man, I wanna reap what I sow
So judge, please, Mr. Judge, send me to the electric chair

Judge, Lordy, Lordy, judge, send me to the electric chair
Judge, ooh, hear me, Judge, you know I loved him so dear
But I cut him with my barlow, kicked him in his side
Stood and left while he died

So judge, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah Judge, send me to the electric chair
One more time, I'm crying, Judge, please, kind judge, send me to the electric chair
Judge, judge, judge, judge, judge, judge, go ahead and burn me, 'cause I don't care
I don't want no bondsman, to go my bail
Don't want to spend no, 99 years in jail

So judge, please hear me, judge
Just send me
Lord, send me
To the electric chair
