"Jailer, Bring Me Water" lyrics

Johnny Rivers Lyrics

"Jailer, Bring Me Water"
(originally by Bobby Darin)

Jailer, bring me water
Jailer, won't you bring me water
Jailer, bring me water
My throat is kinda dry

I never had me no money
Never had me no money
Never had me no money
You know I ain't that kinda guy

Jailer, won't you bring me water
Jailer, please bring me water
Jailer, bring me water
My throat is kinda dry

I'm gonna work till the good Lord calls me
Working till the good Lord calls me
Work till the good Lord calls me
It'll come in by and by

Jailer, please bring me water
Jailer, won't you bring me water
Jailer, I need some water
My throat is kinda dry

Now jailer if you see my baby
Jailer, should ya see my baby
Jailer, if ya see my baby
Oh you tell her I said "Goodbye"

Jailer, please bring me water
Jailer, won't you bring me water
Jailer, bring me water
My throat is kinda dry

Jailer, won't you bring me water
Jailer, please bring me water
Jailer, bring me water
My throat is kinda dry
