[Verse 1]
E
The scene was in the jailhouse,
and if curfew rang that night
E
Nell's dad in number 13 cell
would go out like a light
E
She knew her dad was innocent,
so plucky Little Nell
She tied her tender torso to the
B7 E
clapper of the bell

Hang on the bell, Nellie, hang on the bell
Your poor daddy's locked in a cold prison cell

Remember that curfew bell must never ring tonight

[Verse 2]
E
It all started when sweet Nellie said,
A Am
"No! No!" to Handsome Jack
E
And struggled for her virtue
there down by the railroad track
E
Nell's dad came to her rescue
A Am
as the train roared down the line
E
Jack fell back across the track
and paid the price of crime

[Verse 3]
E
Nell's dad, he got arrested,
and brought up before the law
E
The sheriff said, "Old Handsome
Jack ain't handsome anymore"
E
Poor Nell, she cried and pleaded
but the jury didn't care
E
They didn't have a sofa so they
B7
offered him the chair
[Chorus]
E A
Hang on the bell, Nellie, hang on the bell
Your poor daddy's locked in a cold prison cell
As you swing to the left, Nellie,
A
swing to the right
E B7
Remember that curfew bell must never ring tonight

[Verse 4]
E
They pulled upon the bell rope,
but there was no ting-a-ling
They could not get their foul deed
done for curfew would not ring
E
To and fro aloft swung Nell,
while below they pulled and heaved
When suddenly a voice cried "Stop!
Your daddy's been reprieved!"
[Verse 5]
E
They cut her fair young body down,
A Am
while she made protests weak
E
And as they laid her out upon the ground,
she cried in girlish pique:
E
"Look, I tried to save my daddy,
A Am
which was true a noble thing
E
But still while I was up there, man,
I learned it's fun to swing"
[Chorus]
E A
Hang on the bell, Nellie, hang on the bell
So your poor daddy's sprung from his
B7
cold prison cell
As you swing to the left, Nellie,
A Am
swing to the right
E
No matter when that curfew rings,
we're gonna swing tonight
