Allison:
Please Mr. Jailer, won't you let my man go free?
Please Mr. Jailer, won't you let me man go free?
He don't belong in prison, though he's guilty as can be,
But the only crime he's guilty of is simply loving me.
Please Mr. Jailer, won't you let my man go free?
Well I know it won't be long now,
'Till they cut his hair off too.
Still I'm hoping there's one favor
That I could beg of you. So...
Please Mr. Jailer, won't you let my man go free?
Yeah yeah yeah
Inmates:
Please Mr. Jailer, won't you let this jailbird free?
Whoa ho ho
Allison:
Just look into his eyes, open up that door.
Just listen to his guitar, you'll know the score.
Cry Baby:
Please Mr. Jailer, let an honest man go free.
Allison:
Yeah yeah yeah
Cry Baby and inmates:
Please Mr. Jailer, don't you make no lifer outta me.
I'm innocent, I swear it. Let my woman testify,
She'll tell you where I was that night,
And I'll be satisfied.
Allison:
Please Mr. Jailer, won't you let my man go free?
Cry Baby and inmates:
Well I'm tired of pressing liscense plates down in this rotten hole,
I gotta reach the outside before I lose control.
Please Mr. Jailer, don't you make no lifer outta me.
Allison:
Yeah yeah yeah
Cry Baby and inmates:
Please Mr. Jailer, let me out of this penitentiary

Whoa ho ho oh, whoa ho, let my man go free.
Whoa oh oh, don't make no lifer out of me.
James Intveld - cry baby
Well, one for all and all for one
And all we want is to have some fun
Owh, squares beware of our property
Yeah, if you're lookin' to rumble
You're lookin' at me
'Cause I'm the king (king cry-baby)
'Cause I'm king (king cry-baby)
Yeah, I'm the king (king cry-baby)
A king cry-baby with a tear in my eye
and if you mess with the king, you're gonna cry, baby cry
Baby cry, baby cry, baby cry, wow!
Well, I was born on the wrong side of the tracks
In the backseat of a stolen Cadillac
I had my first cigarette before I could walk
And I was strummin' this guitar before I could talk
'Cause I'm the king (king cry-baby)
Yeah, I'm the king (king cry-baby)
Oh, I'm the king (king cry-baby)
A king cry-baby with a tear in my eye
If you mess with the king, you're gonna cry, baby cry
Baby cry, baby cry, baby cry
Well, I'm a lonely king who needs a queen
Yeah, you're the sweetest hunk of sugar that I've ever seen
Ain't got a ring or crown for you
Well, if I had your love
I'd lose these cry-baby blues
She's the queen, she's the queen, she's the queen
well, let people talk, I don't care
let me prove to you daddy that I ain't no square
You'll be my queen and I'll be your king
yeah, but if you leave my hive, you're gonna feel my sting
'Cause you're my queen (queen cry-baby)
You're the king (king cry-baby)
King and Queen (cry-cry baby)
A king cry-baby with my queen by my side
and if you mess with us man, you're gonna cry, baby cry
Baby cry, baby cry, baby cry
cry Baby cry, baby cry, baby cry
cry Baby cry, baby cry, baby cry
A king cry-baby with my queen by my side
and if you mess with us man, you're gonna cry, baby cry
Baby cry, baby cry, baby cry
cry Baby cry, baby cry, baby cry
cry Baby cry, baby cry, baby cry
