Columbus Stockade Blues

Way down in Columbus, Georgia
Lord I wish I was back in Tennessee
Way down in Columbus Stockade Prison
All of my friends have turned on me
Go and leave me if you want to
Never let it cross your mind
In your heart you love another
Won’t you leave me little darling, never mind
Many nights with you I've rambled
Darlin’ countless hours with you I've spent
Thought I had your sweet love and little heart forever
But now I find you’re only lent
Go and leave me if you want to
Never let it cross your mind
In your heart you love another
Won’t you leave me little darling, never mind
Last night while I was sleeping
I dreamt I held you in my arms
When I awoke I was so mistaken
I was still inside these the bars
Go and leave me if you want to
Never let it cross your mind
In your heart you love another
Won’t you leave me little darling, never mind
Way down in Columbus, Georgia
Oh Lord I wish I was back in Tennessee
Way down in Columbus Stockade Prison
All of my friends have turned on me
Go and leave me if you want to
Never let it cross your mind
In your heart you love another
Won’t you leave me little darling, never mind
Now I got these lonesome stockade blues
