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 Rambling 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 downtown

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

I met a girl named Susie

I told her I was the swellest man around

Well she started and to spend my money

She started and to callin' 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
