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
