Send Me To The 'Lectric Chair

Send Me to the 'Lectric Chair - Dinah Washington (黛娜·华盛顿)

Written by：George Brooks/Fletcher Henderson

Judge you wanna 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 had my knife and I went insane

And the rest you ought to know

Judge judge please mister judge

Send me to the 'lectric chair

Judge judge good mister judge

Let me go away from here

I wanna take a journey

To the devil down below

I killed my man

I wanna reap what I've sowed

So judge judge lord mister judge

Send me to the 'lectric chair

Judge judge please hear me judge

Send me to the 'lectric chair

Judge judge send me there judge

'Cause I loved him so dear

Well I cut him with my Barlow

I kicked him in the side

Stood and laughing

While he wallowed 'round and died

So judge judge lord mister judge

Send me to the 'lectric chair

Judge judge good kind judge

Send me to the 'lectric chair

Judge judge please judge

Burn me 'cause I don't care

I don't want no bounce men

To go my bail

I don't want to spend no

Ninety nine years in jail

So judge judge good kind judge

Send me send me to the 'lectric chair
