Lyrics
He's in the jailhouse now
He's in the jailhouse now
Well, I told him once or twice
To quit playing cards and a-shootin' dice
He's in the jailhouse now
Well, I had a friend named a-ramblin' Bob
He used to steal, gamble, and rob
Thought he was the smartest guy in town
Yeah, but I found out last Monday
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
Well, I told him once or twice
To quit playing cards and a-shootin' dice
He's in the jailhouse now
Well, I went out last Tuesday
I woke up a little old Susie
I told her I was the swellest man around
She started in a-callin' me honey
And started in a-spendin' my money
We took in every honky-tonk in town
We're in the jailhouse now
We're in the jailhouse now
Well, they told us once or twice
To quit playing cards and a-shootin' dice
We're in the jailhouse now
