WEBB PIERCE - IN THE JAILHOUSE NOW lyrics

He's in the jailhouse now, he's in the jailhouse now

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

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

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

Well I went out last Tuesday, met a girl named Susie

I told her I was the swellest man in town

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

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
