Send Me To The 'Lectric Chair - Bessie Smith (贝西·史密斯)
Judge you wanna hear my plea
Before you open up your court
But I don't want no sympathy
Cause I done cut my good man's throat
I caught him whith a trifling jane
I warned him about before
I had my knife and 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 done killed my man
I wanna reap just what I sow
Oh judge judge lordy lordy judge
Send me to the lectric chair
Judge judge hear me judge
Send me to the lectric chair
Judge judge hear me judge
I love him so dear
I cut him with my barlow
I kicked him in the side
I stood here laughing or him
While he wallowed around and died
Oh judge judge lordy judge
Send me to the lectric chair
Judge judge sweet mister judge
Send me to the lectric chair
Judge judge good kind judge
Burn me cause I don't care
I don't want no one good mayor
To go my bail
I don't want to spend no
Ninety-nine years in jail
So judge judge good kind judge
Send me to the lectric chair
