We're in the jailhouse now (in the jailhouse now)
In the jailhouse now (in the jailhouse now)
I hear they told us once or twice, "Quit playin' cards and shootin' dice"
In the jailhouse now
Well, I had a friend named Rambling Bob
He used to steal, gamble and rob
Thought he was the biggest man around
Well, I got word last Monday
Bob got locked up Sunday
They got him in the jailhouse way downtown
He's in the jailhouse now (in the jailhouse now)
In the jailhouse (in the jailhouse now)
Hear they told him once or twice, "Quit playin' cards and shootin' dice"
He's in the jailhouse now, alright Ricky

Well, I woke up last Tuesday
With a pretty little girl named Susie
She said I was the swingin'est man around
Then she started to callin' me honey
Started to spendin' my money
We took in every honky tonk in town
We're in the jailhouse now (in the jailhouse now)
In the jailhouse now (in the jailhouse now)
I hear they told us once or twice, "Quit playin' cards and shootin' dice"
We're in the jailhouse now

Thank you so much
That is alright, thank you
You take a swing of this?
(Mama's Hungry eyes)
(A star beer, and Bob Wills music) Okay
We always gotta do a mandatory moral song, yeah, right?
(Yeah, yeah) (Mama's Hungry Eyes)
Mama's Hungry Eyes, ever don this so well
My mama's birthday was August 4, so, I like do this for her
Bless her heart
