In the Jailhouse Now |
| He’s in the jailhouse now |
| He’s in the jailhouse now |
| I told him once or twice |
| To quit playin' cards and shootin' dice |
| He’s in the jailhouse now |
| Well I had a friend named Ramblin' Bob |
| Who used to steal, gamble and rob |
| He thought he was the smartest guy in town |
| But I found out last Monday |
| That Bob got locked up Sunday |
| They got him in the jailhouse way down town |
| He’s in the jailhouse now |
| He’s in the jailhouse now |
| I told him once or twice |
| To quit playin' cards and shootin' dice |
| He’s in the jailhouse now |
| Well I went out last Tuesday |
| Met a girl named Susie |
| I told her I was the swellest man around |
| Well she started in to spend my money |
| She started in to call me honey |
| We took in every honky tonk in town |
| We’re in the jailhouse now |
| We’re in the jailhouse now |
| They told us once or twice |
| To quit playin' cards and shootin' dice |
| We’re in the jailhouse now |
