Orleans Parish Prison

D
Well, have you seen my dark-haired 
girl?
D
She was set on her love to a hungry 
world
D
They got her clothes and the money 
she took
D
And they wrote her name in the 
prison book


[Chorus]
E              A                
Orleans Parish Prison won't you free
G
 my dark-haired girl?
      E                      A
She's tired and cold and you got the
 gold
    G
She took from a hungry world
E              A                
Orleans Parish Prison won't you 
G                   D
free my dark-haired girl?


[Verse 2]
D
Well, have you seen my green-eyed 
son?
D
He shot a man down with a sawed off 
gun
Continues after the ad
D
And they found him down by the 
Pontchartrain
D
Where they cuffed his hands with a 
big iron chain


[Chorus]
E              A                
Orleans Parish Prison won't you free
G
 my green-eyed son?
  E                     A
I heard him say as they led him away
      G
Sorry for what he's done
E              A                
Orleans Parish Prison won't you 
G                  D
free my green-eyed son?


[Verse 3]
D
Well, have you missed my brother 
man?
D
He took a little money with a gun in
 his hand
D
Now the kids are hungry and the wife
 ain't well
D
And the daddy's locked up in a 
prison cell


[Chorus]
E              A                
Orleans Parish Prison won't you free
G
 my brother man?
  E                    A
I know it's sad but he ain't bad
     G
He's doing the best he can
E              A                
Orleans Parish Prison won't you 
G               D
free my brother man?


E              A        G
Orleans Parish Prison i miss my 
green-eyed son
  E                   A
I love my dark-haired girl
  G
I need my brother man
E              A                  
Orleans Parish Prison i wish you'd
 G                D
