In the Jailhouse Now
Lyricist：Jimmie Rodgers
I had a friend named Ramblin' Bob, he used to steal gamble an' rob
He thought he was the smartest guy around
But I found out last Monday that Bob got locked up Sunday
They've got him in the jailhouse way down town
He's in the jailhouse now, he's in the jailhouse now
Well, I told him once or twice, stop playin' cards and shootin' dice
He's in the jailhouse now
Bob liked to play his poker pinochle with Dan Yoker
But shootin' dice was his favorite game
Well, he got throwed in jail with nobody to go his bail
The judge done said that he refused a fine

He's in the jailhouse now, he's in the jailhouse now
Well, I told him once or twice, stop playin' cards an' shootin' dice
He's in the jailhouse now
Well, I went out last Tuesday, I met a girl named Susie
I said I was the swellest guy around
Well, we started to spendin' my money an' she started to callin' me honey
We took in every cabaret in town
We're in the jailhouse now, we're in the jailhouse now
I told the judge right to his face, 'I don't like to see this place'
We're in the jailhouse now
