In The Jailhouse Now Lyrics - Singles - Soggy Bottom Boys

I had a friend named Ramblin' 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 down town 

He's in the jailhouse now he's in the jailhouse now 

I told him once or twice quit playin' cards and shootin' dice 

He's in the jailhouse now 

He played a game called poker pinoccle with Dan Yoker 

But shooting dice was his greatest game 

Now he's downtown in jail nobody to go his bail 

The judge done said that he refused a fine 

He's in the jailhouse now he's in the jailhouse now 

I told him once or twice quit playin' cards and shootin' dice 

He's in the jailhouse now 

I went out last Tuesday met a gal named Susie 

Told her I was the swellest guy around 

We started to spend my money 

Then she started to call me honey 

We took in every cabaret in town 

We're in the jailhouse now 

We're in the jailhouse now 

I told the judge right to his face 

We didn't like to see this place 

We're in the jailhouse now
