In The Jailhouse versuri

Versuri Downright Hateful – In The Jailhouse lyrics

[Verse 1]
I got a friend named Ramblin’ Bob
He used to steal, gamble, and rob
He thought he was the smartest guy around
Well, I found out last Monday
That Bob got locked up Sunday
And now they got him in the jailhouse way downtown

[Chorus]
He’s in the jailhouse now
He’s in the jailhouse now
Well, I told him once or twice
To stop playin’ cards and shootin’ dice

[Verse 2]
Bob liked to play his poker
Pinochle, whist and euchre
But shootin’ dice was his favorite game
He got throwed in jail
With no-one to go his bail
The judge done said that he refused the fine

[Chorus]
He’s in the jailhouse now
He’s in the jailhouse now
Well, I told him once or twice
To stop playin’ cards and a-shootin’ dice
He’s in the jailhouse now

[Verse 3]
Well, I went out last Tuesday
I met a girl named Susie
I told her I was the swellest guy around
We got to spendin’ my money
She started to callin’ me honey
We took in every cabaret in town

[Chorus]
We’re in the jailhouse now
We’re in the jailhouse now
Well, I told that judge right to his face:
„I don’t like this fucked up place”
