Webb Pierce - In The Jailhouse Now (1955) lyrics

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... [ steel - fiddle ] Now I went out last Tuesday I met a girl named Susie I told her I was the swellest man around We started to spend my money and she started to callin' me honey We took in every honky tonk in town We're in the jailhouse now...
