In The Jailhouse Now

(album: Two Old Cats - 2018)

He's in the jailhouse now, he's in the jailhouse now
And I told him once or twice
To quit playing cards and shooting 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, he's in the jailhouse now
And I told him once or twice
To quit playing cards and shooting dice
He's in the jailhouse now

I went out last Tuesday
A walk up a little Susie
I told her I was the sexiest man around
She started to call me honey
She started to spend my money
We took in every honky tonk in town

We're in the jailhouse now, we're in the jailhouse now
And I told him once or twice
To quit playing cards and shooting dice
We're in the jailhouse now
And I told us once or twice
To quit playing cards and shooting dice
We're in the jailhouse now
