In The Jailhouse Now — текст песни (Ernest Tubb)

He`s in the jailhouse now he`s in the jailhouse now
I told him once or twice to quit playin` cards and a shootin` dice
He`s in the jailhouse now

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`ve got him in the jailhouse way downtown
He`s in the jailhouse now...
[ guitar ]
Now I went out last Tuesday I met a girl named Susie
I told her I was the swellest man around
We started to spend my money then she started to callin` me honey
We took in every honky tonk in town
We`re in the jailhouse now we`re in the jailhouse now
I`ve told the judge right to his face we didn`t like to see this place
We`re in the jailhouse now
