In The Jailhouse Now Lyrics

In The Jailhouse Now lyrics




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
